Its treatment of historical time and of uncertainty helped set the agenda for the remarkable revival of work in the Austrian tradition which has led to an ever wider interest in the once heretical ideas of Austrian economics. It is here reprinted with a substantial new introductory essay, outlining the major developments in the area since its original publication a decade ago. 410 0$aFoundations of the market economy series. 606 $aAustrian school of economics 606 $aTime and economic reactions 606 $aUncertainty 615 0$aAustrian school of economics. 615 0$aTime and economic reactions. 615 0$aUncertainty. 676 $a330.15/7 700 $aO'Driscoll$b Gerald P$0248858 701 $aRizzo$b Mario J$0145864 701 $aGarrison$b Roger W$0248859 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957778803321 996 $aThe economics of time and ignorance$94497665 997 $aUNINA
