Milton Friedman is widely regarded as one of the most influential
economists of the twentieth century. Although he made many
important contributions to both economic theory and policy - most
clearly demonstrated by his development of and support for
monetarism - he was also active in various spheres of public
policy, where he more often than not pursued his championing of the
free market and liberty. This volume assesses the importance of the
full range of Friedman's ideas, from his work on methodology in
economics, his highly innovative consumption theory, and his
extensive research on monetary economics, to his views on
contentious social and political issues such as education,
conscription, and drugs. It also presents personal recollections of
Friedman by some of those who knew him, both as students and
colleagues, and offers new evidence on Friedman's interactions with
other noted economists, including George Stigler and Lionel
Robbins. The volume provides readers with an up to date account of
Friedman's work and continuing influence and will help to inform
and stimulate further research across a variety of areas, including
macroeconomics, the history of economic thought, as well as the
development and different uses of public policy. With contributions
from a stellar cast, this book will be invaluable to academics and
students alike.
