Milton Friedman's 1932-4 University of Chicago lecture notes and readings (from Knight and Mints) consists in large part of summaries of classic articles and books: the contemporary relevance of economic theories (plural).

Dear all
Given the ongoing debate about how students (and possibly teachers) should
be more exposed to history of economic thought, I've been thinking about
ways of how this may be achieved. One possibility might be to put together
a collection of reprints of classic articles and chapters which examine
the subject itself (e.g. why it should be studied, methodology, etc.)
and/or classic pieces which have examined specific HET
episodes/periods/ideas. And so my inevitable question to the list: What
should, and should not, be included in such a volume?
All the best
Bob
