Summary:

The Austrian School has made some of the most significant contributions to the social sciences in recent times but attempts to understand it have remained locked in a polemical frame. In contrast, The Philosophy of the Austrian School presents a philosophically grounded account of the School's methodological, political and economic ideas.

Paramount amongst these are theories of subjective value and notions
