Recenzii
'A fascinating account of the life and work of Jan Tinbergen, who shared the first Nobel Prize in Economics in 1969 for his work on economic planning and business cycle dynamics. His life work shaped and continues to shape the way economics and theory-guided economic policy is done. The author presents an engaging intellectual history that places the evolution of his technical work and policy analyses in a network of ideas and thinkers who addressed the biggest social questions of their day in order to improve human welfare. It exposits the intellectual and moral contributions of a pioneer of modern economics.' James J. Heckman, University of Chicago and Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, 2000
'Erwin Dekker's book lies in the best traditions of biography - uncovering secrets, revealing enigmas and tensions, and giving us new insights into a central figure in economic science and policy actions of the twentieth century. This wide-ranging account shows Jan Tinbergen actively engaged with the political, cultural and economic experiences from the Great Depression of the 1930s to later development projects. He emerges as both technocrat and idealist, both bureaucrat and politician, and both modest and insistent enough to create antagonisms.' Mary S. Morgan, London School of Economics
'To anyone who thinks of Tinbergen as just an econometrician who engaged in building macro-econometric models, this book will be a revelation; it shows Tinbergen as an idealist, committed to building a better society, and not just an economic expert. I strongly recommend it.' Roger Backhouse, University of Birmingham
