Milton Friedman is a senior research fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, and the Paul Snowden Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of Economics at the University of Chicago. In 1976 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in economics. He has written a number of books, including two with his wife, Rose D. Friedman—the bestselling Free to Choose and Two Lucky People: Memoirs, the latter published by the University of Chicago Press.
Rose D. Friedman has written two books with her husband Milton Friedman, the bestselling "Free to Choose" and "Two Lucky People: Memoirs", the latter published by the University of Chicago Press.
Free to Choose (1980) is a book and a ten-part television series broadcast on public television by economists Milton and Rose D. Friedman that advocates free market principles.
Free to Choose: A Personal Statement maintains that the free market works best for all members of a society, provides examples of how the free market engenders prosperity, and maintains that it can solve problems where other approaches have failed. Published in January 1980, the 297 page book contains 10 chapters.
Milton Friedman won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics in 1976. Contrary to normal practice the book was written after the TV series was produced, although the line "Basis for the acclaimed public television triumph" is written on the front cover, using the program transcripts as reference. The book was on the United States best sellers list for 5 weeks.
PBS telecast the series, beginning in January 1980; the general format was that of Dr. Friedman visiting and narrating a number of success and failure stories in history, which Dr. Friedman attributes to capitalism or the lack thereof (e.g. Hong Kong is commended for its free markets, while India is excoriated for relying on centralized planning especially for its protection of its traditional textile industry). Following the primary show, Dr. Friedman would engage in discussion with a number of selected persons, such as Donald Rumsfeld (then of G.D. Searle & Company).
The series was rebroadcast in 1990 with Linda Chavez moderating the episodes. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ronald Reagan, Steve Allen and others give personal introductions for each episode in the series. This time, after the documentary part, Friedman sits down with a single opponent to debate the issues raised in the episode.

评分米尔顿·弗里德曼是货币学派创始人,以自由放任资本主义闻名,获1976年诺贝尔经济学奖。据说在20世纪的经济学家中,只有凯恩斯可以与之相提并论--不管这是不是官方认证,有这个提法就足以证明他的牛气了。这本《自由选择》是与其夫人罗斯·弗里德曼的夫妻档经典作品。我看的是m...
评分社会经济的发展不可避免带来收入层面上的差异,这种贫富分化导致的后果是财富的不平等,甚至社会地位的不平等。为什么有的人生下来就在宝马里哭,有的人到死还只能坐在自行车上笑?为什么有的人上班开奥迪,有的人上班开奥拓?为什么有的人胳膊上能戴五道杠,有的人连自己掏钱...
评分这样了不起的并深远影响了历史进程和人类思想的著作只能由三流冷门出版社偷偷摸摸地出版,到了书店也是放在不起眼的地方蒙尘。而货币战争那样的丧尽天良垃圾贱货狗屎不如的抄袭东西居然一版又版到了14版还花了那么大力气宣传推广。这样下去人们怎么可能不越来越愚蠢呢?怎么可...
评分本来以为一个礼拜就可以读完的书,最终读了两个多礼拜。不是因为书不好懂,也不是因为翻译的问题(这一次的翻译还算可以,几段引言都是引自名家的版本,没有妄自揣测),而是这本书的内在价值。这是一本写现实的书,与此前看到的弗里德曼不同,这本书的学术气息并不浓;因...
capitalism 101
评分终于看完了,去年的遗留任务。Friedman有些观点影响到我。但如今自由似乎成了一项牺牲品。如果我们为其他目标主动放弃一部分自由,要花多长时间才能重新将其取回呢?
评分我的自由主义启蒙。试译(查着词典1个多小时1页的龟速)的其实是本书的前身,同名电视系列片的文字记录部分。之前读过中文版和看了系列片,四舍五入标了><
评分呵呵
评分Audiobook是英国人读的(说服力倍增
