Editorial Reviews
Review
"The service they have performed in collecting these pieces in a single volume is substantial. This book is an excellent reference for "outsiders" to learn what has been happening to input-output analysis in the past fifty years and is an ideal starting point for those interested in pursuing any of these topics and pushing the frontiers a little further."--Economic Geography
"The high quality of and diversity of these papers will bring the reader right to the frontier of the enriched literature and provide a broad research agenda for future development of input-output analysis."--Southern Economic Journal
"A convienient overview of the current state of the art for input-output specialists. Well edited, it is also readily accessible to outsiders."--Journal of Economic Literature
"The papers here are all worthy of inclusion in such a volume and each in its own way helps to show that this subject, although rarely at the forefront of economics, is very much alive and well."-- The Economic Journal
