Andy Isserman And The Early Years Of The International Regional Science Review

This paper chronicles Andy Isserman's editorship of the International Regional Science Review during the period in which the first ten volumes were published (1975-86). The article first provides an overview of the articles that were published during that time, summarizes evidence of later citations to these papers, and presents some observations on Andy's editorial style. The article concludes with a few thoughts on how my experiences as Andy's coeditor of the Review during a portion of this period continue to influence my own work to the present day.
