This week's regular philosophy of economics blog post will be delayed until later this week because I will be at the annual conference for the British Society for the History of Philosophy in Sussex. Here I blogged a bit about my methodological session with James Harris here. I am also giving a paper on how if we take Colin MacLaurin's criticisms of Spinoza seriously, we will discern how Spinoza was a critic of mathematical-empirical natural philosophy (rather than some kind of fellow-traveler of the scientific revolution). MacLaurin was the leading Scottish Newtonian of first half of 18th century.
