Giblin: The Scholar and the Man is a commemorative collection of memorial papers edited by the distinguished economist Douglas Copland, gathering the reflections and tributes of colleagues, friends, and fellow thinkers who bore witness to Giblin's extraordinary life and legacy. Through their combined voices, the volume reconstructs the full dimensions of a man who served with valour at Gallipoli, pioneered modern economic thought in Australia, and brought a rare warmth and intellectual generosity to everything he touched.\n\nPublished by F. W. Cheshire in Melbourne, this anthology stands as a significant document in the history of Australian academic and public life, illuminating the interplay between rigorous scholarship and civic commitment that defined Giblin's career. Copland, himself one of Australia's foremost economists and a close associate of Giblin, curates these papers with evident admiration and scholarly precision, ensuring that each contribution adds a distinct facet to the portrait of the man. For readers interested in the foundations of Australian economic policy, the culture of interwar intellectual life, or simply the biography of an exceptional human being, this volume presents a tribute as compelling as its subject.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50736206708955,"sku":"2026200018488-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/0d0d0870-0d22-4312-befa-b72ca7f04cb6.png?v=1792122610","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200018488-secondhand-giblin-the-scholar-and-the-man","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
