A great lecture by Peter Lewin on capital theory. Lewin was a student of Ludwig Lachmann during his undergrad years and is very much influenced by Lachmann and it shows in this lecture. Lewin is the person that made me pick up my first Lachmann book. I discovered him a couple years ago by searching Austrian economists in Dallas, which is where I am from.
A very similar, not exact, powerpoint can be found here
Here are Peter Lewin’s writings, which are worth reading
UPDATE: This is a more recent lecture by Lewin on capital, using the powerpoint linked in this post.

Have you read Lewin’s Capital in Disequilibrium? I bought it when the Mises Institute re-published it, but I haven’t read it from cover to cover.
I read the book last year, but not the republished version.
This is irrelevant but what do you think of the Catalan/Lord Keynes debate?
I’ve only skimmed through the posts… I’ll probably read them more carefully this weekend (I have been a bit busy this week).
I got my Bachelor’s and Master’s of Finance at The University of Texas at Dallas. Peter Lewin was my professor for, I would say, about 5 classes. I always looked to see if he was teaching the particular subject that I needed to take because I always prefered him as a professor. He is an absolute genius. He just has a way of taking a vague concept and explaining it in a plain and simple way. I highly recommend reading anything he has written.
Yeah, if I went to UTD, I would have definitely taken some of his classes. His book, capital in disequilibrium, is a nice read
