This is the third and final volume of collected papers of A.W. Bob Coats. Coats began to collect material for this volume in the years following the publication of the second volume in 1993, but sadly died in 2007, before the work was completed.The volume has now been completed under the editorship of Roger Backhouse and Bruce Caldwell. Along with his articles, the compilation of the volume also reflects Coats’ interest in and commitment to book reviews, a selection of which have been chosen for inclusion. The book also includes a comprehensive bibliography.In addition to a preface by Backhouse and Caldwell, the volume also reproduces the obituary that was published in History of Political Economy, a memoir published in 1996, and an interview with Grant Fleming, published the previous year. Together, the introductory materials, articles and reviews serve as a fitting tribute to the body of work of Bob Coats.

"Bob Coats’s colleagues have already said goodbye and thank you to him in various obituaries, conference sessions, and biographical articles. But this concluding monument to his extraordinarily wide career is an occasion to do so again. By coincidence, the post that brought this volume to your reviewer also brought him a postcard from Bob’s wife (and collaborator) Sonia and his daughter Louise announcing ‘now volume 3 is out. Yippee!!’ There was always a slight fear that Bob would have already picked out his best work for the first two volumes and that the series would end on a disappointing diminuendo. Not so. Yippee is the word." - John Maloney, University of Exeter Business School, UK, The European Journal of the History of Economic Thought
