"Professor Satyendra Nath Sen was an authority on monetary economics, trade and finance and possessed specialized knowledge of banking. He was an wonderful teacher and had inspired three generations of students of economics. His writings in banking, trade and finance sparkle with brilliance and insight. His articles on money, banking and finance are regarded as masterpieces of compressed, analytical and thought-provoking writings which, at the same time, are marked by his simple and lucid style.
