Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The passing of Robert D. (Bob) Tollison obviously was a great loss to the economics profession, to public choice and to his many friends and admirers. For those who knew Bob as a colleague, a close friend, and an inspiration, his death was a shock and will leave a lingering hurt. I knew Bob had some health issues, but who doesnt after having passed their three score and ten. But he went too suddenly for someone who was still a prodigious scholar, who had so much more to contribute and look forward to, and who projected such a sense of invincibility. It was his powers as an economist, the creativity and consistency exhibited in his scholarship, and his joy in his family and friendships, that are vivid in my memories of Bob.
