This is my favorite book of my favorite author. He dissects every known form of socialism up to the date of publication (1922). His words have stood the test of time and there are very few, if any really new ideas since, that are not actually described (if not by the same names) and torn apart in this book. Most importantly, he explained how socialism is not a rational system and had to fail, of it's own inconsistencies. I cannot praise the book highly enough. The scope is magisterial: covering everything from love and sex under socialism and capitalism, to the details of national economic planning. You will be amazed at how relevant and thoroughly readable this book is today, almost 100 years after it first appeared. Mises's most well known colleague, the Nobel Prize winning economist Friedrich von Hayek, said this book is what turned him against socialism. Before he read it, he was enamored with socialism. The super-popular (in his day) socialist American economist Robert Heilbroner said not long after the collapse of the Soviet Union and most of the communist world in 1989, that "of course Mises was right." That's an incredibly ironic "of course," since Heilbroner made his name pushing various types of socialism during his long academic and best selling author career. The prominent (in Europe) Polish Socialist (1920s-30s) Oscar Lange said socialists should erect a statue to Mises, for his pointing out a critical flaw in socialism. He was NOT being facetious. If even honest socialists such as these admit Mises was right, shouldn't you know what he said about socialism? Another huge benefit to reading this book is that Mises does not contend himself with only being critical of Socialism. No, not at all. He makes the full case for a rigorous liberal society based on a truly free market economy. This book is one of the all-time greatest achievements of the human mind. Considering this, it is also not all that difficult. I thought virtually every part fascinating, and was incredibly enriched by reading every part. Enjoy.
