This electronic version of The Collected Interwar Papers and Correspondence of Roy Harrod, edited by Daniele Besomi and published by Edward Elgar in 2003, is not identical to the original on paper. It includes:

• the editorial apparatus: tables of contents (correspondence, chronological and by correspondent; essays and press items), general introduction, editorial introduction, first line index, biographical notices, a bibliography, acknowledgements. The subject index could not be included for technical reasons.
• Most of the texts of Harrod's papers and correspondence. Two copyright holders, unfortunately, have not given permission to include in the electronic version the materials in their care, while another asked for an extavagant fee; these documents (see list) have thus been omitted. They are, however, picked up by the search engine, and can be looked up in the printed version.
• Bonus materials: the abstracts of about 600 further letters of limited interest for economists, the correspondence between Harrod and Henry Scott-Stokes, images of correspondence and other materials, some of which included in the paper edition but some of which unpublished.

These pages were automatically generated from the format prepared for publication on paper. This procedure has produced some bugs. Some have been identified:

• paragraph formats are sometimes odd.
• Most italics and other kinds of emphasis in the text have gone, but other italics misteriously appear here and there. Formulas, Greek and other odd characters (used for symbols and transcription of Greek originals) etc. may not show correctly (Please note: This is therefore not a text that can be cited as it is. Moreover, most of these materials are not in the public domain: see the copyright notice).
• Formulas and equations have been transformed in .gif files and read as pictures. This, unfortunately, does not look good.

There may more bugs hidden somewhere. Please report anything suspicious you may see, indicating which browser and which operating system you are using.
