A timeless classic of economic theory that remains fascinating and
pertinent today, this is Frank Knight's famous explanation of why
perfect competition cannot eliminate profits, the important
differences between "risk" and "uncertainty," and the vital role of
the entrepreneur in profitmaking. Based on Knight's PhD
dissertation, this 1921 work, balancing theory with fact to come to
stunning insights, is a distinct pleasure to read. FRANK H. KNIGHT
(1885-1972) is considered by some the greatest American scholar of
economics of the 20th century. An economics professor at the
University of Chicago from 1927 until 1955, he was one of the
founders of the Chicago school of economics, which influenced
Milton Friedman and George Stigler.
