Foundations of the Market Price System

Description

Murray Rothbard just loved this Austrian text on microeconomic theory. In fact, he thought it was the best text available — except that it has only been sporadically available since it was first published in 1974. It is characterized by a strong pedagogical drive, a logical precision, and an excellent presentation that competes directly with mainstream alternatives. The original typesetting was from a typewriter, which was unfortunate; this ebook edition rectifies that difficulty and presents the entire text and all illustrations in a clear, attractive format.
