Happy birthday Friedrich Hayek

Yesterday was the birthday of Friedrich A. Hayek: born May 8, 1899.
Hayek at the London School of Economics in 1948.

Philip Booth writes in the Telegraph on why the Financial crisis shows why we should admire Freidrich Hayek.

Peter Klein at Organizations and Markets gives this set of readings for Hayek's birthday:
  • Klein’s Biography of Hayek
  • Hayek and Entrepreneurship
  • Austrian Economics and Strategic Management
  • The Use of Knowledge in Firms
  • Austrian Economics and the Transaction Cost Approach
  • Rothbard and Hayek
  • Hayek versus Hayek
