He is the author of a number of books on business and economic subjects, and is an authority upon economic conditions in America and Europe.

Mr. Vanderlip has always been greatly interested in business education.

He will interest himself particularly in this same subject while at Harvard, helping the individual to study the relation between his job and his career.
