This obscure but interesting Ludwig Lachmann book is now available on-line for free. I studied with Lachmann at NYU when I was very young, and he helped make me more contrarian. This short book is about how institutions coordinate plans, and how the sociological legacy of Weber is an indispensable component of any theory of Hayekian spontaneous order. From that description alone, you ought to know whether or not you will like it.
I found the following brief biography of him to be very informative:
Ludwig Lachmann (1906-1990): Life and Work
I would rather read about the legacy of Jurgen Habermas..
