Economics and hermeneutics
Richard Rorty dies (2007-06-10)

See Rorty’s readable Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature ; to some this is warmed-over Quine mixed with Continental gobbledy-gook but you can think that and still value the book. This book (only $200!) has a wonderful essay on the importance of Rorty for economists and economic method.
