Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal

Written on July 4, 2011. Written by .

This book contains two parts: 1. Theory and History, 2. Current State. The first part was a good overview of Rand’s philosophy and had some interesting arguments for capitalism. The second part was mostly a rant with less interesting content. The chapters are each independent articles, some written by other authors, so there is some overlap in the content. The arguments are a bit overconfident and less reasonable than other libertarian writers like Milton Friedman. This can make it frustrating at times when the author makes sweeping claims. Overall I thought it was good food for thought.
