Abstract

Collaboration is like a torch that makes an existence of a product visible. This is true especially for students where collaboration can give one a big push and an early start in their career. In the parlance of statistics, we have here only a sample of collaboration bounded in space-time. From some of the general ideas we touched on, collaboration comes out as a genuine route that truth-seekers can take. For nearly 20 years, the coeditors of this book have been collaborating on over a dozen books and approximately 50 articles and can attest that the hypotheses and reasons given for collaborating in this book are on firm foundation. This book has started a journey of laying bare the rationale behind collaborations as well as the joys of it, and will hopefully stimulate future masterpieces in economics.
