Editorial Reviews
"The Urquhart estimates of Canada's gross national product are one of the most important pieces of original scholarship in Canadian economic history in recent years. They are already supplying the raw material for research studies in Canada and abroad and will continue to do so for decades to come. This volume is an essential complement to those estimates." Ronald Shearer, Department of Economics, University of British Columbia. "I can say, without question, that no scholar working in Canadian economic history, national income accounting, or comparative economic growth will be able to continue his or her research without having access to Urquhart's work ... The final estimates are probably the single most important contribution to Canadian economic history in the last half century ... The scholarship and methodology are impeccable." Lance E. Davis, Division of the Humanities and Social Sciences, California Institute of Technology.
