Corden has written a charming and insightful account of his
professional and personal life, from his childhood in Breslau,
Germany, until his retirement in Melbourne. The book is divided
into two parts. Part I considers Corden's early life, from a young
boy growing up in Nazi Germany, to his immigration from England to
Australia and what that means for the author's self-identity. Part
II addresses Corden's work on the Australian Protection Policy for
which he is perhaps best known, before reflecting upon the author's
time at Oxford University and the Australian National University,
and, finally, moving on to review contributions made at the IMF,
Johns Hopkins University, and The World Bank. This book will be of
interest to all aspiring economists, as well as established
economists familiar with Corden's work. It is an inspiring and
profound record of the intellectual journey made by one of
Australia's best known economists.
