"It is easy to understand why a solid course by this great teacher and great economist would have swept away like chaff in a windstorm the nebulous idealism and Socialist views of Director’s Yale days," Coase stated in ''Palgrave''.<ref>http://www-news.uchicago.edu/releases/04/040913.director.shtml</ref>
