Economic Policy: Thoughts for Today and Tomorrow

By: Ludwig von Mises

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

These chapters were originally delivered as lectures in Argentina in 1958, at the University of Buenos Aires, and later written up in prose. Mises had urged Argentina to turn from dictatorship and socialism toward full liberty, so there is a special urgency behind the cool logic employed here. The book's continued popularity is due to its clarity of exposition on the ways in which economic policy affects everyone. It is a very good text for undergraduates studying economic policy, and for anyone who wants to gain a fundamental understanding of the interaction between market forces and government intervention.

Should be required for every high school student

The ideas are simple and straightforward and so well explained. Not a lot of deep technical explanations. Just perfect for really understanding the brilliant points. Narration was obviously AI and mostly okay, but not great. Don’t let that stop anyone from listening to this fantastic read.
