A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

“Should be read by every scholar, writer, activist…”--Ron Paul, former U.S. Congressman

“I love [it.]” A “masterful dissection.” “Fantastic!”--Dr. Arthur Laffer

If you have read or even heard about Capital in the Twenty-First Century—economist Thomas Piketty’s egalitarian treatise—you owe it to yourself to read Hendrickson’s powerful critique. Hendrickson combines extensive knowledge, mature wisdom, common sense, and a rare ability to render complex subjects clear and easily understood. Problems with Piketty shows us the grim consequences of egalitarian policies; exposes the flaws and explodes the fallacies in Piketty’s book; and presents a stirring defense of free enterprise.

Far more than just a corrective to Capital’s many errors, Problems with Piketty works well as a stand-alone teaching tool. Thanks to a detailed Table of Contents, its multiple lessons are easy to find. You may find yourself referring to this book for years to come.

“A serious and thorough analysis…”--Fr. Robert Sirico, Acton Institute

“A classic for our time.”--Dr. Yuri Maltsev, Author of Requiem for Marx

“Highly readable…a yeoman’s job”--Walter Williams, John E. Olin Distinguished Professor of Economics, George Mason University
