Abstract
I find myself something of an outsider in writing a paper like this; and for a mathematician to write a paper with no technical mathematics is a real (but very constructive) confrontation with the problem of communication. What I hope to achieve here is to convey some of my ideas on the relation between dynamics and the traditionally static, economic equilibrium theory.
