This collection represents Koopmans' work over the past 15 years on such topics as the representation of preference orderings, the computation of an optimal stationary capital stock, the comparison of economic systems, optimal growth theory, and models of energy and other exhaustible resources.

Proof for a Case where Discounting Advances the Doomsday; Concepts of Optimality and Their Uses; Examples of Production Relations Based on Microdata; Economics Among the Sciences; Alternative Futures With or Without Constraints on the Energy Technology Mix; The Transition from Exhaustible to Renewable or Inexhaustible Resources; Additively Decomposed Quasiconvex Functions.
