Book Reviews

David Gordon take a critical look at Markus Gabriel's Moral Progress in Dark Times, and although he finds parts that are disturbing, he also discovers important areas of agreement.

This book is an indispensable contribution to Austrian economics and to libertarian thought, and readers will also gain a clear sense of Huerta de Soto’s major contributions in these areas.

David Gordon take a critical look at Markus Gabriel's Moral Progress in Dark Times, and although he finds parts that are disturbing, he also discovers important areas of agreement.

In this book, DeLong has a firm sense of the immense power of the free market to achieve economic growth. Unfortunately, he goes wrong in many other ways. 

Despite his mistakes, Scalia was an impressive figure who showed himself more than a match for the left-wing elites who dominate the major law schools. The intelligence and wit manifested in his opinions made him one of the major jurists in the history of the Supreme Court, and if we must sometimes dissent from this great dissenter, we should not lightly dismiss him.

The only way the current bust and any future ones can possibly be mitigated is by following Rothbard’s explanation of the Great Depression and taking those lessons to heart, else we will be doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Rothbard’s America’s Great Depression is the essential book to read for those wanting to understand the economic issues we face today.

“America’s Great Depression” serves as a reminder that a brighter future where these missteps are recognized and no longer pursued, is in fact possible.

No one will read For a New Liberty and not see the world with very different eyes afterward.
