  abstract: Grinberg and Rubinstein have written a profound treatment of one of the persistent mysteries of pure economics: how best to treat the "common good" or "social interest."

Intriligator, Professor of Economics, Political Science, and Policy Studies, UCLA I have read the manuscript with great interest and appreciation. The authors offer a sweeping discussion, beginning with my early travails with the merit good concept and its development over the years, and moving on to a wide range of related contributions, and …
