Deposition of Andrew Eliot against Nathan Prince, Nov. 26, 1741

In this deposition, Eliot describes Prince's anger at John Winthrop's selection as Hollis Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy, which he believed was done "to vex and torture" him. Eliot claims that Prince said: "they have chosen that Boy Winthrop professor, I could teach him his A. B. C. in the Mathematicks, they want to get me away from College."

What are the effects of the EU budget: Driving force or drop in the ocean? CEPS Special Report No. 86/April 2014

The study presents an overview of the impact of the main investment tools of the EU budget.
