In his "History of Economic Thought" textbook, Kay Hunt includes a 
chapter on William Thompson and Thomas Hodgskin. Kay said once that he 
included that chapter to illustrate how Marx's thinking is different 
from the "Ricardian Socialists" and to emphasize some of the widespread 
confusion about what Marx was getting at. The Anthro Man on that list is 
a cases in point. He is wrongly attributing views from the Ricardian 
Socialists' as views of Marx.
