Peter Lewin's book <em>Capital in Disequilibrium </em>(Routledge, 1999) develops and extends many of the themes in Lachmann's earlier book. (Peter was a student of Lachmann's, incidentally.) You can read an excerpt <a href="http://www.utdallas.edu/~plewin/chapterone.pdf" rel="nofollow">here</a>. If you'll forgive the self-promotion, The Foss-Foss-Klein-Klein paper "<a href="http://www.dass.missouri.edu/faculty/pklein/papers/06013.pdf" rel="nofollow">The Economic Organization of Heterogeneous Capital"</a> might be of interest. Finally, Roger Garrison has several papers on recent developments in (Lachmanian) capital theory <a href="http://www.auburn.edu/~garriro/articles.htm#CAPITAL-BASED MACROECONOMICS: VARIATIONS ON A" rel="nofollow">here</a> and <a href="http://www.auburn.edu/~garriro/articles.htm#CAPITAL AND" rel="nofollow">here</a>.

I don't know if this topic is germane to your blog, but what is the body of knowledge on capital? Regards, TDL P.S. Very interesting blog, I have been reading it for some time now.

A fundamental premise of the Strategic Management field is the heterogeneity of the firm. However, to date, there is no systematic formal body of knowledge that analytically unpacks the concept of "heterogeneity" into essential components. When this paper is written, I anticipate that Lachmann's concept of the "heteogeneity of capital in use" will play a central role. Lachmann's work also may be connected to Penrose's resource-based approach, which emphasized heterogeneity in the SERVICES of resources and the entrepreneurial imagination to come up with new services of resources. Thank you for this book pdf.
