"Bob Coats’s colleagues have already said goodbye and thank you to him in various obituaries, conference sessions, and biographical articles. But this concluding monument to his extraordinarily wide career is an occasion to do so again. By coincidence, the post that brought this volume to your reviewer also brought him a postcard from Bob’s wife (and collaborator) Sonia and his daughter Louise announcing ‘now volume 3 is out. Yippee!!’ There was always a slight fear that Bob would have already picked out his best work for the first two volumes and that the series would end on a disappointing diminuendo. Not so. Yippee is the word." - John Maloney, University of Exeter Business School, UK, The European Journal of the History of Economic Thought
