Abstract
Staffan Burenstam Linder (SBL) passed away on 22 July 2000. The following year I published an article about him in the yearbook of the Economic Research Institute at the Stockholm School of Economics (Lundahl, 2001; cf. Lundahl 2005a, 2005b). After yet another year I received a phone call from Carl Uggla, an ex-manager at SE-Banken. He had worked politically with SBL and he wanted to write a book about his old friend. I gave him all my material.
