What is Austrian Economics?

I started my study with an introductory essay, titled What is Austrian Economics. It is a fairly short and straightforward historical overview of the Austrian School of Economics. It gives you the basic timeline for this.

It is a good lead-in for a book from my reading list. Fifteen Great Austrian Economists [pdf], which greatly expands on this article. I have not yet finished this book, but I am about halfway through. The book goes into much more detail about their lives, their theories and their importance to Austrian economics.
