The Canadian economic historian and historian of Canadian economic thought Robin Neill passed away of a heart attack at his summer cottage at Rocky Point, Prince Edward Island, on June 29 at the age of 82. He remained active in research until the very afternoon of his passing, and continued teaching, as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Prince Edward Island, until mid-February. He was Professor Emeritus of Economics at Carleton University (where he taught from 1972 until his retirement in 1996), and taught four or five courses at year at UPEI from 1996-97 until this year. He previously taught at the University of Saskatchewan and its Thomas More College from 1960 to 1969 (Associate Professor from 1968). He was an Associate Professor at UPEI from 1970 to 1972, during which time he was the founding president of the Atlantic Canada Economic Association, which later made him a lifetime member. Robin Neill wrote two books, A New Theory of Value: The Canadian Economics of H. A. Innis (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1972) and A History of Canadian Economic Thought (London and New York: Routledge, 1991). He published six articles in the Journal of Canadian Studies, and other articles in the American Journal of Economics and Sociology, Journal of Economic History, Journal of Economic Issues, Journal of the History of Economic Thought, Research in History of Economic Thought and Methodology, and Studies in Political Economy. Together with Gilles Paquet, Robin wrote the article on Canadian economics before 1967 for the special issue of the Canadian Journal of Economics (1993) marking the 25th anniversary of the founding of the journal. Robin wrote entries on thirteen Canadian economists for the Biographical Dictionary of American Economists (Ross Emmett, ed., Bristol: Thoemmes Press, 2006) and coauthored the article "Canada, Economics in" for the second edition of The New Palgrave (2008). From 2001 Robin chaired the Research Advisory Board of the Atlantic Institute for Market Studies. In 1974-75, Robin wrote a report for the Social Sciences Research Council of Canada about the economics publishing in Canada. The report drew attention to the near- monopoly situation of Canadian academic publishing, and was never published. Robin graduated from the University of Toronto and from Duke University, where his PhD dissertation on the Canadian economics of Harold Innis was supervised by Joseph Spengler. Robin is survived by his wife of forty-two years, Sharon (nee Flynn), and their daughter Natalie. Robert Dimand
