"Walter Williams makes sense. With academic credentials contributing depth to his conclusions, he commands respect. Now, in economics, politics, and social philosophy, we have a ready reference in his own words." -Paul Harvey, "Dr. Williams tells the truth. This alone makes him a huge threat to liberals. It also makes his writings an unparalleled soure of economic and cultural wisdom. Williams is a man of principle and good sense, a defender of freedom, and I am happy to be on his side. As should you." -Rush Limbaugh, "Walter Williams is skeptical about government, skeptical about bureaucrats, and skeptical about politicians, but he's never skeptical about liberty. This collections of hard-hitting essays reflects a passionate commitment to freedom." --Phil Gramm, United States Senator, "Here are some of the ideas and values that has made us the most free and most prosperous nation in human history--ideas and values we must recapture." --Dick Armey, United States Congressman, "Here are some of the ideas and values that has made us the most free and most prosperous nation in human history-ideas and values we must recapture." -Dick Armey, United States Congressman, "Dr. Williams tells the truth.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe

    Excellent purchase. Was able to get all three items from the one seller. Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.

  • Dr. W. E. Williams

    Read long ago. Ordered for a friend. If you want to know how the world ticks, and even if you don't feel you have a good grasp of economics, this is the economist for you. Book is 20 years old but the principles are timeless.
