Description: Los Angeles: Nash Publishing, 1970. Reissue. Hardcover. ISBN: 0840212232. "The first systematic treatise of economics to be published within the last fifty years. Addressed to the intelligent, educated layman as well as to the economist, this work is a brilliant and systematic exposition of the principles and doctrines of the economics of the free society. Assuming no previous knowledge of economics on the reader's part, Rothbard (1926-1995) proceeds, by a deductive chain of reasoning in which every link is made explicitly evident, to draw the conclusions logically implied in the fundamental axiom of human action... Conclusively demonstrates that 'the workings of the voluntary principle and of the free market lead inexorably to freedom, prosperity, harmony, efficiency, and order; while coercion and government intervention lead inexorably to hegemony, conflict, exploitation of man by man, inefficiency, poverty, and chaos.'" - dust jacket.
