In three previously published essays and a new introduction, Kirzner (economics, New York U.) argues that an Austrian approach to economics based on the pure time-preference theory offers an attractive alternative to both the orthodox neoclassical and the heterodox Sraffian approaches. In his subjetivist view that traces all capital and interest phenomenon to individual multi- period plans, capital appears not as an objective mass of tools and equipment, but as the interim state in which inter-locking multi-period plans have manifested themselves at a particular point.

Frank Fetter of Princeton University was one of the great American Austrians, and perhaps the most lucid defender of the "pure time preference" theory of interest in the history of economic ideas. Rothbard learned from him, and then collected his best work into a single volume that works as a reader on the Austrian theory of capital and interest. If we are tempted to think of the Austrian perspective as a tiny minority within the profession, this volume shows that the situation has always been more complex. Fetter was not an Austrian from beginning to end, but on this topic, no one wrote with more conviction and explanatory power. The English is beautiful, and logic is rigorous. With this reprint, Fetter again has a voice.
