For over fifty years, Eli Schwartz has inspired generations ofeconomists through his prolific publications and dedicated in teaching.In 2008, the Martindale Center for the Study of Private Enterprise atLehigh University invited prominent academics andpractitioners—including Nobel Prize recipients, Robert Solow and HarryMarkowitz, and former Chairman of the Economic Advisers to RonaldReagan, Murray Weidenbaum—to contribute pieces that reflect their ownapproaches to issues that Schwartz has explored over the long span ofhis career. The twelve original essays cover a range of topics,including tax reform, corporate finance, fiscal policy, banking,economic growth, and globalization, representing a variety ofmethodologies, including economic theory, econometrics, and caseanalysis. The collection emphasizes the underlying connections amongseemingly disparate facets of economic activity, and underscores thetremendous influence of Schwartz on economic analysis, policy, andleadership today.
