Free to Choose (1980) is a book and a ten-part television series broadcast on public television by economists Milton and Rose D. Friedman that advocates free market principles.

Free to Choose: A Personal Statement maintains that the free market works best for all members of a society, provides examples of how the free market engenders prosperity, and maintains that it can solve problems where other approaches have failed. Published in January 1980, the 297 page book contains 10 chapters.

Milton Friedman won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics in 1976. Contrary to normal practice the book was written after the TV series was produced, although the line "Basis for the acclaimed public television triumph" is written on the front cover, using the program transcripts as reference. The book was on the United States best sellers list for 5 weeks.

PBS telecast the series, beginning in January 1980; the general format was that of Dr. Friedman visiting and narrating a number of success and failure stories in history, which Dr. Friedman attributes to capitalism or the lack thereof (e.g. Hong Kong is commended for its free markets, while India is excoriated for relying on centralized planning especially for its protection of its traditional textile industry). Following the primary show, Dr. Friedman would engage in discussion with a number of selected persons, such as Donald Rumsfeld (then of G.D. Searle & Company).

The series was rebroadcast in 1990 with Linda Chavez moderating the episodes. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ronald Reagan, Steve Allen and others give personal introductions for each episode in the series. This time, after the documentary part, Friedman sits down with a single opponent to debate the issues raised in the episode.

米尔顿·弗里德曼是货币学派创始人，以自由放任资本主义闻名，获1976年诺贝尔经济学奖。据说在20世纪的经济学家中，只有凯恩斯可以与之相提并论--不管这是不是官方认证，有这个提法就足以证明他的牛气了。这本《自由选择》是与其夫人罗斯·弗里德曼的夫妻档经典作品。我看的是m...  

在企业所构成的市场成面上，新自由主义经济学的解释力是足够强大的。然而经济学家还不够满意，他们还希望去主导一个国家或者社会的规则制定和设计，以寻求逻辑上满足，理想状态中的经济学理论效用最大化。这正是新自由主义的边界所在。 正如每个人都有自己的能力边界一样，某...

道理讲得深入浅出

a bit outdated but there r good points about government's role on economy

Audiobook是英国人读的（说服力倍增

有负星可以给吗？milton friedman绝对是名字大于内容的一个人。此书每次出现red China就有撕书的冲动。用香港做例子？好啊，看看香港现在成什么样子了如果大陆没有管制的话！很多信息麻烦update, 不然作为资本主义propaganda傀儡的样子太明显了！一朋友和MF的孙子共事，like father like son, 有时候不用那么自大时间检验你是错的你就是错的。
