Rezension zu „A Guide for the Young Economist “
"This book is very useful for economists of all ages, and it is a must for Ph.D. students and their advisors. I suggest that all authors submitting papers to Games and Economic Behavior use Thomson's book as a guideline." --Ehud Kalai, Editor, Games and Economic Behavior "How many times have valuable contributions to scholarship--written and oral--been compromised because of inadequate communication? This is far less likely to happen if economists read and think about the issues discussed in William Thomson's book." --John Pencavel, Department of Economics, Stanford University "Good economic theory mixes rigorous mathematical reasoning with intuitive motivations and stories, which can make the task of presenting or evaluating cutting-edge research a treacherous balancing act. In this one-of-a-kind essay, Thomson offers an armful of good advice and tricks of the trade to economists young and old, lest any of them forget that a bad container can spoil its contents." --Herve Moulin, Department of Economics, Rice University "The quintessence of the French mind--precision, concision, eleganceas it should be, Pascal rather than Derrida. Everyone who knows William Thomson knows that he is not only a great economist but also a master expositor, be it in his papers and books or in his talks. In this book, he shares his remarkable know-how with us young and not-so-young economists." --Maurice Salles, Professor of Economics, Universite de Caen, and Coordinating Editor, Social Choice and Welfare "William Thomson does for economics what Paul Halmos does for mathematics. Thomson shows the young (and the non-young) economist how to write, lecture, and submit work for editorial review. I recommend this guide to all professional economists." --Karl Shell, Thorne Professor of Economics, Cornell University, and Editor, Journal of Economic Theory "One of the most engaging pieces of pedagogical writing that I have ever encountered." --Suzanne Scotchmer, Department of Economics and
