The Journal of Economic Perspectives is a labour of love

In order to bring you an article from this journal I have to:
  1. Request item from British Library catalogue for reading at the British Library.
  2. Actually receive the volume and issue number I have asked for (this does not always happen).
  3. Glance at first page or two of each article (no abstracts) to check for relevance/interest to readers.
  4. Search for the article title online (personally I find Google best for this simple task).
  5. Pick up URL for article
Here you now have Genes, Eyeglasses, and Social Policy by Charles F Manski published in Journal of Economic Perspectives Volume 25 Number 4 (Fall 2011)

And I hope the effort was worth it!
