5 If I might be permitted a personal word, Mrs. de Vries’s earlier writings were extremely helpful to me when I was researching my book, International Monetary Collaboration. The earlier Fund histories are cited throughout the book. Mrs. de Vries was also helpful to me personally. I know that I will be making frequent references to this latest Fund history in any supplement that I may write.
