Issue 61: Inflation and Resources
This fifteenth annual Highlights issue of Resources gives an account of events and issues that were of special interest in 1978 and will be of continuing concern during 1979. The intent is to report events accurately and readably and to provide relevant background information and comment. The treatment is selective, representing the judgments of a number of RFF staff members, and does not purport to be a comprehensive roundup of resource and environmental issues.
The views reflected here are those of Individual contributors and are not official points of view adopted by Resources for the Future.
