The article presents a review of the book "The Economics of Executive Compensation," by Kevin F. Hallock and Kevin J. Murphy.

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.

Reviews the book "Bridge Hall Mills: Three Centuries of Paper and Cellulose Film Manufacture," by Martin Tillmanns.

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]
