The parallels between what is happening now and what is being described in the first 100 pages of this book are eerie. Credit to the mastermind Milton Friedman… feel like many may not know the full scope of his legacy in shaping the global economic and sociopolitical world order

Interesting and fast-paced narrative historical analysis of the development of neoliberal laissez-faire, in the US and abroad. A window into the AnCap godfather Milton Friedman, and his ideology’s parallels to the now discredited “shock therapy” treatment of the early 20th century.
