Reviews

'Ebenstein has provided an educational look at the life and thought of a philosopher who bids fair to have as much intellectual relevance to this century as Marx had to the 20th.' - Washington Post '...Ebenstein take us on a lively intellectual journey...[an] astute biography...' - Wall Street Journal '...a gripping account...an illustrious exposition of the life of the last century's greatest political philosopher.' - Houston Chronicle '...an accessible and illuminating review of Hayek's life, philosophy, and accomplishments.' - Washington Times 'A splendid biography of the twentieth century's greatest philosopher of liberty. A well written, sympathetic, yet critical examination of his life and intellectual contributions.' - Milton Friedman, Senior Research Fellow, Hoover Instititution, Stanford University, Professor Emeritus of Economics, University of Chicago, and Nobel Laureate in Economic Sciences, 1976 'It is good to have this solid intellectual biography of Hayek available. It can supplement the several generalized evaluations of Hayek's ideas.' - James M. Buchanan, Advisory General Director of the Center for Study of Public Choice, Distinguished Professor Emeritus at George Mason University and Virginia Tech, and Nobel Laureate in Economic Sciences, 1986 '...Ebenstein skillfully crafts his history.' - Claremont Review of Books '...an illustrious exposition of the life of the last century's greatest political philosopher.' - Houston Chronicle
