A Great Reality Check on Intentions and Outcomes

Sowell opens your mind, teaching you to think beyond the narrative. A truly great read.

Bill Wallace's narration is better

The version with the red cover is better split in subchapters and narrated in a more even manner.

Clear and well argued

In characteristic Thomas Sowell fashion, this book is clear, engaging, and well argued, with every assertion backed up by facts or examples.

Confusing

this is very confusing. I don't know exactly what this book was about. Sometimes it's just free market capitalism propaganda, sometimes history, sometimes general economics.
I definitely don't recommend this to anyone.

Great book.

Should be required reading. Read Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell first. Both are Must Reads.

another classic from Thomas Sowell
