This should be an easy one for someone. 
 
Today on the TCH-ECON list (for teaching economics) someone asked why  
economists put Price on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis.  
The person then said they thought it had something to do with Marshall,  
but wondered what, and why. 
 
We all probably have versions of this that we use in class, and several  
have been put to the TCH-ECON list already. I figured that the HES list  
would be a good place to get a more definitive answer! 
 
Any replies? I'll pass things on to the TCH-ECON list.
