Hardcover. Condition: very good. Dust Jacket Condition: very good. First edition. The Nobel Laureate's writings included in the first four volumes. They document the long and distinguished career of one of America's most important economists and encompass more than 280 articles. The first two contain virtually all of Samuelson's contributions to economic theory through mid-1964; Volume 3 contains all the scientific papers written from mid-1964 through 1970; Volume 4 consists of 86 articles, all the scientific contributions of Samuelson from mid-1971 through 1976. These four volumes belonged to professor Mark Schupack (each volume bares his bookplate on the pastedown). Schupack was a student of Samuelson at MIT who went on to teach economics at Brown University. During his career at Brown, Schupack was chair of the economics department, associate provost, dean of the graduate school, and vice provost. A few pages with marginalia by the professor. Volume one has a chip to the top spine of the dust-jacket and a closed tear along the front flap fold. Volume 3 with sunning to the spine. All volumes have minor edge-wear. 6½" - 9½". book.

First edition, early printing of Volume I of the Nobel Prize-winning economists papers. Octavo, original cloth. Inscribed by the author on the title page,ÂÂ"For Doug Burrows, Paul A. Samuelson, Endicott House, June 21, 1972." Fine in a near fine dust jacket. "It is a measure of Professor Samuelson's preeminence that the sheer scale of his work should be so much taken for granted," observes a reviewer in the "Economist" who goes on to note that "a cynic might add that it would have been better for Professor Samuelson to write less merely to give others a chance to write at all." In fact, Samuelson's output, his "extraordinary mastery of methods, both mathematical and linguistic" (review of Volume 4 of "The Collected Scientific Papers"), have not diminished. Volumes 1 through 4 encompass more than 280 articles. The first two contain virtually all of Samuelson's contributions to economic theory through mid-1964; Volume 3 contains all the scientific papers written from mid-1964 through 1970, and the last volume brings his work up to through 1976.
