Caldwell sets out to answer the question: what can neoclassical economists of the late twentieth/early twenty-first century, learn from Hayek’s writings? His reply constitutes an intellectual tour de force of the neoclassical approach. If neoclassical economists read only one book on Hayek, this would have to be it. Caldwell is not just sympathetic and open, his objective is nothing less than to demonstrate to neoclassical economists, clearly and trenchantly, just how much they have to gain from certain of Hayek’s writings. He succeeds remarkably.

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard. 

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
