Additions and Redrafts

My main purpose so far has been to outline as briefly as possible the contributions of Adam Smith, and to give due credit to Hume and the Physiocrats. Perhaps I have been too terse in my treatment of Smith? But note that I have created a link to what I consider to be a muchc-needed article devoted exclusively to The Wealth of Nations.

I have searched in vain for a significant contribution to economic thought by Engels or Kautsky, so I have deleted the references to them.

Chicago school

The Chicago school is probably the single most important source of economic thought in recent decades, as proven by all those Nobel prizes (and reaffirmed by obits of Friedman this year). It's impossible to omit--we had it covered in two sections (monetarism and micro). 07:42, 24 October 2007 (CDT)
