Description
Capitalism and Freedom by Milton Friedman is a seminal work of economic theory that explores the relationship between government and individual freedom. First published in 1962, this influential book has sold nearly a million copies in English and has been translated into eighteen languages, continuing to inform economic thinking and policymaking around the world. In this new edition, Friedman's original ideas are complemented by prefaces written by the author for previous reissues, as well as a new foreword by Binyamin Appelbaum, lead economics writer for the New York Times editorial board. The book's enduring relevance is a testament to its importance in shaping our understanding of the role of government in economic and political life. a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the intersection of economics and politics, Capitalism and Freedom offers a thought-provoking analysis of the benefits and risks of government intervention, and its impact on individual freedom.
