It's nice of American Heritage, but I'd say they got it wrong. "Conduct" denotes morality/ethics, and a judgment of one's actions, and not the value-free fact of action itself. Tsk, tsk editors.

I can't believe that. How many times have Austrians said that praxeology is the study of human action? It's like tired, cliche' definition now.
I wonder if someone in Heritage did this on purpose... hmm..

I just did a search... And I found something that I had forgotten - that Praxeology.net is a website of Prof. Roderick T. Long, whose work I've come across in the past.
Here is an encyclopedia article that may be more to the liking of Mises readers and staff.
