David Warsh's Knowledge and the Wealth of Nations is eliciting praise from many quarters (Tyler Cowen; Paul Krugman; The Economist; Brayden King). Peter Gordon likes it too, but notes that "the book and its story are poignant for Austrian economists, whose contributions are hardly acknowledged. The question that goes unasked is: What has the neo-classicists' journey of discovery, as sketched by Warsh, contributed that is worthy beyond the Austrians' long-held focus on entrepreneurial discovery?"
