By presenting key parts of their work that are only available in Swedish, this book not only fills some gaps in the picture of the history of Swedish economics, it also inspires new generations of economists to communicate their findings outside their narrow circle of specialists." - Magnus Henrekson, Professor of Economics and Senior Research Fellow at the Research Institute of Industrial Economics (IFN), Stockholm "In this book, we learn about 12 Swedish economists.

Secondly, it focuses on a number of economists related to the Industrial Institute of Economic and Social Research: Ingvar Svennilson, Axel Iveroth, Jan Wallander, Erik Hook, Villy Bergstrom and Rolf Henriksson. Finally, it offers portraits of three economists from Lund University: Bo Sodersten, Ingemar Stahl and Gote Hansson. The work of all of them is
