Not So Free to Choose: The Political Economy of Milton Friedman and Ronald Reagan

Editorial Reviews
Choice
"Since Milton Friedman's economic and social philosophy has been pretty much adopted by Ronald Reagan, an analysis of the former's validity--as is done in this book--throws much light on the latter. In an exceedingly readable form, Rayack (who received his PhD at the University of Chicago, where Friedman taught) dissects the various Friedman policies and usually shows them to be either shallow in reasoning or based on twisted facts, as well as cavalier in their treatment of history.... Critics of Reaganomics will find much to confirm their views; supporters would do well to ponder the implications. Academic and public library collections."
