In focusing upon the band/crawl proposals, The Burgenstock Papers makes a serious and important contribution to discussions of changing the international monetary system. The only viable alternative to a widened band and crawl (assuming flexible rates will not be adopted) is probably to have fixed exchange rates within major currency areas and flexible rates between them. Under this proposal, the Common Market countries would probably have fixed exchange rates between themselves, but a floating rate versus the dollar. There might also be a pound-based group, a yen-based group, and so on. Each country could then decide for itself whether to float its rate, or to which currency group to tie its rate.

This collection of papers results from a conference on Research in Income and Wealth, under the auspices of the National Bureau of Economic Research, held at the University of Pennsylvania in 1967. The primary concern lies with the measurement and explanation of differences in the wealth and incomes of various entities. The definitions and procedures are unique and suggest the rather diverse framework that must accompany such an undertaking. The first two papers are devoted to the distribution of wealth, and the remaining four pertain for the most part to income. Comments are offered on each paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The papers in this compendium are arranged under five topical headings: program appraisal and management, manpower and education, income maintenance, health, and housing and the "quality of man's environment." The last phrase is a synonym for air and water pollution. With that addendum, the topical headings accurately convey the scope of the two volumes. As they suggest, the scope is extremely wide.

According to its preface, this book is the outgrowth of a symposium concerning methodology in finance and investments held at Rutgers University in May 1971. It consists of eleven separate papers, varying in length from 16 to 53 pages, and covering a variety of topics grouped into five categories. A good introduction sets forth the main points of each paper. As indicated by the editor, the primary objective of the book is to contribute to the "knowledge, awareness, or understanding of" (1) methodological foundations common to finance, investments, and other fields of inquiry; (2) the essential nature of the postulates of normative behavior in finance and investments; and (3) the continuing "explosion of knowledge about the structure of the finance world." After commenting briefly on each paper, we consider the relationship between the book's purpose and its contents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
