               Milton Friedman was one of the most influential economists                        The Es
               of all time. He revolutionized the way economists think about 
               consumption, about money, about stabilization policy, and about 
               unemployment. He demonstrated the power of committing oneself                     sential
               to a few simple assumptions about human behaviour and then 
               relentlessly pursuing their logical implications. He developed and 
               taught new ways of interpreting data, testing his theories by their                
               ability to explain multiple disparate phenomena. His successes were               MIL
               spectacular and his techniques were widely emulated.                              T
               But Friedman’s influence extended beyond economists. To the public                ON
                                                                                                  
               at large, he was the world’s foremost advocate for economic and                   FRIEDMAN
               personal freedom. In the United States, he helped to end the 
               military draft, to broaden educational choice, and to change 
               the regulatory climate. Worldwide, almost all central banks 
               now follow policies that are grounded in Friedman’s 
               insights and recommendations. 
               This book briefly summarizes Friedman’s 
               extraordinary contributions to economic theory,                                   Ste
