5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent, Handy Resource, September 14, 1999

By	Donald J. Boudreaux (Burke, VA United States) - See all my reviews

It's too bad that this excellent resource is out of print. I bought my copy when it was first published in the early '90s and have consulted it regularly ever since. Each article is clearly written and is nicely balanced -- neither too advanced nor vacuous. Editor David Henderson deserves loud applause for assembling such a stellar collection of essays.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bring it back, December 5, 2001

By	Erin Natura (Norman, OK) - See all my reviews

This encylopedia is fantastic!!!!! The authors write clearly and sensibly. I find it to be an extremely useful and convenient reference source. Armen Alchian's essay on property rights is particularly fine. I hope it is back in print soon.
