Positively Milton Friedman

John Burton

Chapter 4 in Twelve Contemporary Economists, 1981, pp 53-71 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Attempting to portray the work of Milton Friedman in 5000 words is an impossible assignment. It is like trying to catch the Niagara Falls in a pint pot. A diminutive man in physical stature (5 ft 3 in), Friedman is also one of the intellectual giants of twentieth-century economics — the source of a cascade of ideas, papers and books, of a highly diverse, original and (nearly always!) provocative nature.
