About this product

Product Information

Selected by the Times Literary Supplement as one of the "hundred most influential books since the war" How can we benefit from the promise of government while avoiding the threat it poses to individual freedom? In this classic book, Milton Friedman provides the definitive statement of his immensely influential economic philosophy-one in which competitive capitalism serves as both a device for achieving economic freedom and a necessary condition for political freedom. The result is an accessible text that has sold well over half a million copies in English, has been translated into eighteen languages, and shows every sign of becoming more and more influential as time goes on.

  • Only if Freedom Means Absolutely Everything to You

    This is a good example of taking one value, freedom, and arguing policy from its implications on this value alone. There are three primary problems: (1) he fails to consider any other values (such as equity, meritocracy, environmental sustainability, human rights or dignity, world hunger and starvation, concern for the wellbeing of others, etc.) that are also important to Americans. His policy recommendations thus by definition only work if freedom is the only value one subscribes to. If you have more values, you find yourself not supporting most of his conclusions after you give some thought to how the other values play into the conclusions. (2) When he considers "neighborhood effects" (as something that violates freedom, as in our right not to have uneducated or homeless ...

  • A True Masterpiece Of Social And Economic Philosiphy

    Friedman's economics made the 80s and 90s. Im happy his ideolgy made me realize as a Gen Z that Socialism isnt the way for world. This book explains perfect examples of why government control of our institutions is a horrible idea and gives free market alternatives. Truly a damn good read.

  • Staying Power

    Friedman's self-proclaimed classic establishes him as the prototypical Libertarian. He takes classical liberalism a bit too far in such ludicrous postures as professional organizations inhibit progress and innovation, that monopolies do not. In the chapter on education, Friedman seems far from his element, and strays even farther there from his classical liberal theme. He may be more nearly on course, however, on the subject of fiscal policies, but he seems to forget than basing a nation's money supply on precious metals has never worked in the long run. However idealistically flawed his arguments may be, Friedman has been listened to, his ideas the basis of much of the GOP's ideology since the 1960s.
