I am a Professor of Economics at
Boston College. My main interest these days is the connection between
reproductive biology and intergenerational transfer behavior. I am
currently working on a paper entitled "Biological Basics and
Intergenerational Transfers," and expect to have a working draft out in
a couple of months. Let me know if you want a copy and I will email one
to you. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions please send
them to my address above.
