My hair is thinning, I can still run those 4 kms in 18 mins or less, but no so easily anymore, I find myself reading obituarities — and here are my selected papers, fresh from the press, on Knowledge, Economic Organization, and Property Rights. I take solace in the fact that these are only selected rather than collected papers.
Here is the list of contents:

High praise, indeed, from Bruno Frey, a first-rate scholar in his own right. Well done, Nicolai.

An 18 minute 4 kilometre is not bad at all for any age …. I’m very jealous. I fear the last time I could manage that, I was in my twenties.
