Capitalism and freedom

Capitalism and freedom

Milton Friedman, 1912-2006

Book - 2002

How can we benefit from the promise of government while avoiding the threat it poses to individual freedom? In this classic book, the author provides the definitive statement of his economic philosophy--one in which competitive capitalism serves as both a device for achieving economic freedom and a necessary condition for political freedom.
