In this lively new history, Brian Doherty provides a concise, thorough account of the intellectual roots of the American libertarian movement, with helpful summaries of key figures, institutions, and events. Modern Libertarianism effortlessly combines historical insights and intellectual profiles of important figures, including Ludwig von Mises, F. A. Hayek, Ayn Rand, Murray Rothbard, Milton Friedman, and Barry Goldwater, well as of key institutions such as the Foundation of Economic Education and the Mont Pelerin Society. A superb introduction for the newcomer, yet rich and varied enough for others interested in the tradition, Modern Libertarianism is a tribute to those who advocated for the cause of political liberty in America in the 20th century.
