The contents are organised around his many and diverse contributions to the fields of international trade theory and policy. . . An excellent short introduction by Sisira Jayasuriya summarises the evolution of Peter Lloyd's academic career from a "boy from the bush" in New Zealand to a pre-eminent trade economist.'
