He was professor of geometry at the University of Vienna from 1927 to 1938. During that period, which was crucial from an historical and philosophical point of view, he joined the Vienna Circle and founded his Mathematical Colloquium. The present volume of Advances in Austrian Economics offers the transcription of those unpublished parts of Menger's notes written between 1923-1938. It is hoped that these notes, together with the editor's contextual explanations, provide a subtext to Menger's biography during this influential periodSummary: The genesis of the half-published Viennese autobiography of Karl Menger (1923-1938) : new light on the Vienna circle and the mathematical colloquium / Giandomenica Becchio -- Return from the U.S. (1931/32) and in Vienna again (1931-1934) / Giandomenica Becchio -- In Vienna between 1934 and 1938 / Giandomenica Becchio -- Ethics and economics in Karl Menger / Giandomenica Becchio -- References / Giandomenica Becchio -- Karl Menger's drafts : editor's note on the text / Roger Koppl; Steven Horwitz -- The philosophical atmosphere in Vienna before and during the interwar period -- Pre-circle Austrian philosophy / Giandomenica Becchio -- Immediate predecessors of the circle : Mach, Boltzmann, Mauthner / Giandomenica Becchio -- The Vienna circle / Giandomenica Becchio -- Between Vienna and Amsterdam (1923-1927) / Giandomenica Becchio -- Viennese meetings 1927-1930 / Giandomenica Becchio -- Visiting the United States (1930-1931) / Giandomenica Becchio -- Foreword / Brian McGuinness. - Karl Menger (1902-1985) was the mathematician son of the famous economist Carl Menger.
