Samuelson Friedman The Battle Over the Free Market [Audiobook]

Samuelson, a forbidding technical genius, grew up a child of relative privilege and went on to revolutionize macroeconomics. He wrote the best-selling economics textbook of all time. His friend and adversary for decades, Milton Friedman, studied the Great Depression and with Anna Schwartz wrote the seminal books The Great Contraction and A Monetary History of the United States. Friedman found fortune writing a treatise, Capitalism and Freedom. In Wapshott's nimble hands, Samuelson and Friedman's decades-long argument over how - or whether - to manage the economy becomes a window into one of the longest periods of economic turmoil in the United States.
