The "Conference on the Need for a New Economics of Science" was held these 
past few days. More information on the conference program and abstracts can 
be found by visiting our Web site (see address in signature). 
 
We would like to inform you that we are preparing a refereed collection of 
essays, "The Need for a New Economics of Science", which is partly based on 
conference activities but also includes other related materials. We would 
like to invite you to submit a contribution to this volume, which is open 
to both participants and non-participants. In addition, we welcome 
suggestions you may have for other possible contributors or areas not 
adequately covered during the conference. We would also appreciate 
receiving any course syllabi you may have on economics of science. 
 
We have an open offer to publish the volume with University of Notre Dame 
Press and several other publishers have also expressed an interest in 
publishing the collection. 
 
The deadline for submitting papers to "The Need for a New Economics of 
Science" is Friday, May 30, 1997. Please send us three copies of your paper. 
 
        Sincerely, 
 
        Philip E. Mirowski
