"We like economics, but we love our families -- even though it might not always appear that way at the margin." Peter Boettke is the BB&T Professor for the Study of Capitalism at the Mercatus Center, and a University Professor of economics at George Mason University. The leading Austrian School economist of his generation, Pete has written several books on the history, collapse and transition from socialism in the former Soviet Union, as well as books and articles on the history of economic thought and methodology. Scott Beaulier is the BB&T Chair of Capitalism in the Stetson School of Business and Economics at Mercer University in Macon, GA, where he also serves as the Chair of the Department of Economics. Scott is the author of a number of academic articles that focus on issues in Austrian economics, public choice economics, and development economics. He is also an expert on Botswana's economy, which is the fastest growing country in the world since 1965. Boettke and Prychitko are co-authors (with the late Paul Heyne) of The Economic Way of Thinking (Prentice Hall). Beaulier and Prychitko co-author the text's Test Bank and Study Guide. Beaulier can be blamed for retaining and writing more of the tricky multiple-choice questions that students will confront on their exams.
