In my previous message on Ripley there
is a Freudian slip ... Morgen Witzel 
wrote the chapter ... and the book
that he has that touches on Ripley 
is Witzel (ed.), Encyclopedia of
the history of American Management (Thoemmes 2005)
... cheers ... GP

Hi Prof Perelman

Though Ripley is best known for his railroad economics
and 'racial' theories, he also contributed to corporate
finance --> Morgan Wetzel wrote a chapter dealing with 
Jenks, Meade and Ripley in vol. II of my 'Pioneers
of Financial Economics' (Poitras and Jovanovic (eds.) 
Elgar 2007) ... I recall Morgan was
also working on book on corporate finance around the 
beginning of the 20th century that contains additional
work on Ripley ... 

cheers ... GP
