Reviews

Friedman's exposition is the best nonmathematical treatment I have seen... [T]his collection and elaboration of some of Friedman's ideas is a very valuable supplement to standard graduate theory texts. I believe that the state of economic thought would be advanced by a wide reading of these notes. --Roger F. Miller, The American Economic Review
