I had three excellent teachers as an undergraduate. Wolfgang Stolper -- a famous economist, whose classes mostly covered music, philosophy, stories about Schumpeter, and European history -- Dan Fusfeld, who allowed me to take a graduate class in history of economic thought that consisted of me and two graduate students, and Toulmin. I was to immature to fully appreciate any of them, but Toulmin.s lectures on a growing opposition to an absolute belief in rationality struck a chord with me, although I'm not sure that I knew it at the time.
