A hefty tome by this master economist. Here he is
communicating with the public about economic theory and policy. No economist
has ever written so clearly about subjects usually wrapped in mystery. Even
when discussing exchange rates, interest rates, and central banking,
Rothbard is clear and persuasive. That's what makes this book so wonderful,
and so dangerous to the purveyors of economic fallacy and those who enforce
their ideas on the public. This wonderfully lucid work could become the next
Economics in One Lesson.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Murray N. Rothbard (1926-1995) distinguished himself
as an economist,
writing a major treatise on theory, several important economic histories,
and a highly praised history of economic thought. But he was also known as
the pioneer thinker of libertarianism, the political philosophy that roots
freedom in private property ownership and decries the state as inherently
contrary to the ethics of a free society. Writing from this perspective, he
gained a reputation as the most provocative and influential contributor to
the anarchist tradition in our century.
