Unless you are well studied in economic thought over the past 200 years you will find this pretty deep -- I did, and for a non-economist it is a book that will take time to digest. Free Market economics well thought out, but heavy reading for me. I can't say I "enjoyed" it, only that it took me to ideas I had not fully thought out. IMO, Milt Friedman is a much easier read, but Schumpeter is a classic free market economist.
This is a popular classic. However it is hard to get at the library and the print on the Harper edition was too small. Now I can read the book and highlight text. I love the adjustable text size feature on my Kindle.
Fundamental for the understanding of the dynamics of capitalist economic development. Complementary reading to Max's Capital and Keynes' General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money. A classical in the field.
Interesting subject,actually huge.I enjoyed it, however the text is a little bit heavy, long complicated sentenses,reminding me of german(deutsch) with the verb way back.
Incredibly predictive of our current economy, but a difficult read. Then again, is it worth reading if it's easy?
I was new to this work but I found it on and for the low price I thought it was worth a read. I ended up spending hours on this text and found it very enjoyable to read.
I found it very useful in writing my term papers for a graduate Economics course.
this is one of the classic books on economics. Economics capitalism and democracy where is under attack nowadays as the American Way. For any scholar or individual it wishes to stand in the bait American ideals economic freedom prosperity or capitalism this is the gunpowder you need to win.
