Correction to the list of sources on the Mill-Whewell debate from Kent 
Staley. 
The 1996 book: _Early Mathematical Economics: William Whewell and the 
British 
Case_ (Rowman & Littlefield) was authored by James P. Henderson, 
not Sam Hollander.  I'd urge you all to puchase a copy for yourself and 
your 
university library, but that might be mistaken for a sales pitch!
