This volume reports the proceedings of a conference sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston in September 1972. This is the ninth such conference since June 1969 and the fourth in the area of monetary policy. As the title indicates, this is the second conference on the problem of controlling monetary aggregates, accurately reflecting both the magnitude of the importance and the continuity of the interest of the subject. The other volumes in the series include financial structure, international finance, and state and local finance. On the whole, the conferences encompassed high class, well prepared papers presented by respected authorities in the respective areas. The volumes deserve space on every monetary analyst's bookshelf and should receive considerable reference use. It would be difficult to praise the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston too highly for this service they provide the public at large, the financial community, and the academic community, and of course to themselves and the rest of the Federal Reserve System in opening controversial subject areas to free debate. Of all the public information and research funds expended by the Federal Reserve System, these conferences and the publication of the proceedings must rank among the most worthwhile and those generating the highest returns. May this series have a long and healthy life! [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Reviews two book. "Man, Race and Darwin: Papers Read at a Joint Conference of the Royal Anthropological Institute and the Institute of Race Relations," edited by Philip Mason.

This attractively thin book contains 17 papers by 14 internationally known economists on the spectrum of problems involved in restoring and maintaining balance in international payments within the constraint of the Bretton Woods philosophy of fixed exchange rates. Comprehensive essays by Fellner, Machlup, and Triffin comprise Part I and serve as an introduction to the broad nature and complexities of payments problems and policies for dealing with them. At the same time, Part I establishes a framework against which specific aspects and technical problems of payments imbalance are examined in more detail in the 14 shorter "Papers on Special Issues" which make up Part II. According to Machlup, the underlying purpose of the symposium is to provide a set of basic criteria by which countries can assess their responsibilities for action with regards to balance-of-payments difficulties.

The article presents views of the author on W.H. Auden's book "The Theory of Capital," that is a thick collection of previously unpublished papers which, in deference to his last point, has the potential advantages of multiple authorship. Though it is possible that judgments of these papers by their respective authors already form a distribution over all of Auden's classes, I suspect a remarkably large number of them will be judged by the profession to fall into the final category. In my opinion, this book contains several important papers and represents a valuable contribution to the resurgent interest in capital theory. I cannot commend it more highly than to suggest that every economists with analytical or empirical interests in capital theory should have a copy on his bookshelf. This book constitutes the long awaited proceedings of a conference held by the International Economic Association on the island of Corfu, September 4 to 11, 1958. Thirteen papers were discussed in eleven three-hour sessions. Papers were circulated in advance and generally each session began with the author or a discussant briefly summarizing the main points of the paper and the discussant providing his impressions critical comments or extensions of the paper.
