It may also be of interest to the readers to know that, Gesell's
works "Gesammelte Werke" (in 16 (or 18?) volumes) have been published
between 1988 and 1995 in German. Indeed, our own university library
has a copy. Furthermore, a revised version of the English translation of
Silvio Gesell's main work in political economy, "The Natural Economic
Order" is scheduled to be coming out shortly with an interesting
introduction by P. Corcoran.
