Perhaps the major reason why there is no anthology of readings in history of thought, like those available in the history of political theory, is simply a problem of market demand? Of course, the underlying problem is the one suggested by someone in the postings about why we should study history of economic thought: in political theory, the study of theory is the study of the history of political thought; in economics, the two are distinctly separate. Since there are few history of economic thought courses these days, the market is simply not big enough to support texts. Ross Ross B.
