A teoria do comércio interestelar

É por estas e outras que me orgulho de ser economista: Paul Krugman sobre a Teoria do Comércio Interestelar, em Economics: the final frontier - Paul Krugman - Op-Ed Columnist - New York Times Blog. Ele explica: "Thirty years ago I was an oppressed assistant professor, caught up in the academic rat race. To cheer myself up I wrote — well, see for yourself. Joshua Gans of the University of Melbourne scanned a copy of the thing I wrote — back then academics did their work with typewriters, abacuses, and stone axes — and was good enough to send me a copy. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you The Theory of Interstellar Trade."
