Free Market Reader: Essays in the Economics of Liberty
1 review
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 1988
Interesting and timely anthology of free-market thought...
Lew Rockwell has compiled a fascinating collection of essays to add to the free-market apologia. Rockwell is the "dean" of the Ludwig von Mises Institute in Alabama, the fountainhead of paleolibertarianism. The Institute works to advance individual liberty and free-markets while promoting Judeo-Christian values. This book, originally published in the late 1980's, contains a number of essays on a ...

Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 1996
Powerful and Remarkably Timely
This is a very insightful collection of essays from many of the leading "Austrian School" trade economists. They run from essays in the 30s aimed at countering the wave of post-depression social planning to essays in the 70s arguing against Keynesian economics. The key economic insight across the essays is the temportal nature of the Austrian view of business cycles. An artificially low ...

Murray N. Rothbard
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 2000
A Rothbard Reader
Murray Rothbard was one of the most important thinkers in recent memory. He made substantial contributions to economics, political theory, social theory, history and cultural criticism. Unfortunately, there is no "Rothbard Reader" that gives the reader an overview of his contributions to all these fields. Nonetheless, this collection of Rothbard's essays - which came out in 1974 - is probably ...
A History of Money and Banking in the United States: The Colonial Era to World War II

Murray N. Rothbard
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 2002
Fascinating, Behind-the-Scenes Intrigue Revealed!
Absolutely fabulous! Only the incomparable Rothbard could tell this compelling story in its full richness and detail. Here the hidden history of money and banking in America unfolds as the internecine, behind-the-scenes warfare between elite financial interests such as the House of Morgan and the Rockefellers, the electoral struggle between the Hamiltonian Federalists and the Jeffersonian ...
Epistemological Problems of Economics
2 reviews
Ludwig von Mises
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 2003
Theory and History
EPISTEMOLOGICAL PROBLEMS IN ECONOMICS is a seminal work by Ludwig von Mises. Actually, the English translation of the title is somewhat misleading. This work (which is a collection of essays) deals not only with methodological issues but broader questions of economic theory. Von Mises wrote in the rationalist tradition. According to him, the laws of economics (which are part of the more ...
Economics for Real People: An Introduction to the Austrian School
18 reviews
Gene Callahan
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 2002
Simplify without being simplistic
Gene Callahan accomplishes the monumentally difficult task of taking what seems to be "impossible" to outsiders and makes it accessible through his use of excellent examples and word-pictures. (I'm sure the logical positivist, mathematics-based economists will despise the rationalist approach...but let's save that discussion for a few beers and a cigar...). He builds his discussion, bit by ...
Man, Economy, and State

Murray N. Rothbard
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 1993
The Best Treatise on Economics ever written...
This is simply the best treatise on economics that has been written upto date in the human history. Ludwig Von Mises 'Human Action' comes close but it is too dense for a layman. This book: Man, Economy and State, written by Murray N. Rothbard can make an economist out of layman if he puts time and efforts into reading this book and understanding all its concepts. Murray Rothbard starts with the ...
Economic Calculation in the Socialist Commonwealth
2 reviews
Ludwig von Mises
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 1990
The Challenge to All Socialists
Economic Calculation in the Socialist Commonwealth sent shockwaves though the academic world when it appeared in 1920. Following World War One many scholars were fascinated with the newly formed Soviet Union. Would the USSR live up to the romantic expectations of Marxists? Could some other form of socialism work better? Was capitalism doomed? Ludwig von Mises answered these questions with a ...
Making Economic Sense

Murray N. Rothbard
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 1995
Rothbard's legacy: a fine posthumous collection
Murray Newton Rothbard tragically ceased to be "the State's greatest _living_ enemy" when he died in 1995. But his thought lives on in this posthumous collection, mostly drawn from his monthly essays for _The Free Market_ between 1982 and 1995. These essays cover a wide range of topics, from the welfare state to Clintonomics to fiat money to U.S. intervention in the Middle East -- and ...

Ludwig von Mises : Scholar, Creator, Hero
3 reviews
Murray N. Rothbard
Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 1988
A fitting tribute from a great student
Rothbard honors his great teacher Mises in under 80 pages - but never did the biography read as if it was too short. Here is a great source for an account of Mises's life and also his ideas from someone who championed and expanded them. Overall, a delightful read.
