I do not find link with neither Mises nor Bohm-B and no mention of a link between prices and pictograms ("price" is not even mentionned in the texts i rapidly browse for this attempt of response). For an extensive bibliography on the subject, try: http://members.chello.nl/j.seegers1/ottoneurath/neurath_biblio.html And excuse me for my deficient english and use of the word "tackle"... it's how we employed it in my classroom some years ago and it remains a bad habit.

Thanks. I had a _specific_ point in mind - namely, the analogy between the guiding role of prices and that of pictograms. Is this "tackled" in the stuff you mention? Seiphcam, Very interesting.

I checked my bibliography and found this article by R. Leonard: ''Seeing is Believing: Otto Neurath, Graphic Art and the Social Order'', History of Political Economy, Special Issue: Economists and Art, Historically Considered, 1999, pp. 452-478. Surely interesting... Cheers By the way… I checked my bibliography and found this article by R. Leonard:
