After all, HOPE beat both Stigler (1991) and Rosenberg (1994)to the recovery of Babbage by more than five years, no? And don't think I don't know that HOPE published Lapides' trans of Grossmann's wage theory. But now turning to Marx criticism, what do you make of the awful, short, and superficial review by Brewer of the excellent Bellofiore volumes, which could be considered a real event in the current development of Marxian economics. All the best, Rakesh
