Excerpt from Economic Performance: An Introduction to Economics
Section III utilizes the material, revised and brought up to date, which previously appeared as Economic Development.1 In it I acknowledged my unusually large debt to other economists, so that I shall not repeat my thanks for the generous help that I have received. But I must again men tion my increasing indebtedness to the Economics Department of City College, which continues to have my developing ideas inflicted upon them on all possible occasions. So many in the Department have helped in so many ways that it would be quite unfair at this time to single anyone out for special thanks with the exception of Elliot Zupnick, who has worked closely with me for the last year or so, commenting on the entire manu script, attending to a great many details, and providing substantial drafts of the two Appendices (though the final responsibility for them is, of course, mine).
The contribution of my wife, no economist but a remarkable editor, has steadily increased. In fact, in all fairness I must this time confess that, were it not for her help, this volume would have been infinitely less comprehensible and have appeared far less rapidly.
