----------------- HES POSTING ----------------- Colleagues: The recent activity on this list is a fine reflection of the diverse interests and enthusiasms of the history of economics community. I have noted though that many participants in these list dicussions are not members of the History of Economics Society. I would as a result like to take this opportunity to invite those list readers who are not members to visit the society's website at http://eh.net/HE/HisEcSoc/ and consider the various advantages of joining the society, one of which is support for this list. The link to membership services on that site allows on-line enrollments and renewals of memberships. E.
