  Over the course of a long and distinguished career, Sam Peltzman has                                           AND TITE
  established a reputation for developing provocative, original research that
  frequently fties in the face of conventional wisdom-, Regulation and the
  Natural Progress of Opulence is no exception. Peltzmans thesis is that mar-
  ket forces frequently undermine attempts at regulation, but nevertheless,           N    A  T    U   R    A    L    PID-11-.201G     R    E   SS
  counterproductive regulation can survive for a long time. This puzzle
  defies simple explanation, but Peltzman explores some possibilities in this                                       OF
  monograph. In concluding, he suggests that good empirical research on
  regulation can help guide policy reforms when the issues become politi-
  cally salient.                                                                                     OPULENCE
