and student, provides a sequel and update.The central lesson of Hazlitt's seminal work is that
economic thought and policy must consider all the consequences of
an action, not just the immediate or most visible ones. Hazlitt is
right that this is the kernel of all good economics. Lewis covers
this theme and also introduces two more lessons: how a free and
uncontrolled price system creates prosperity and how a controlled
or manipulated price system creates only crony capitalist
corruption and, ultimately, poverty and economic
failure.

This volume answers with a resounding yes to both

and actions in a very uncertain world. We also need them to protect
us from the “thinkers for hire” who, paid by special economic
