Milton Friedman: A Biography

摘要

Milton Friedman granted Lanny Ebenstein permission to write his biography, but evidently did not carefully examine his qualifications for the task. Friedman did not have a colorful personal background-certainly nothing comparable to that of John Maynard Keynes, who is often cited as an economist whose influence paralleled Friedman's-so there is little need for a biographer to dwell on details of earlier undergraduate and graduate years, marriage, and family (the first fifty pages of the biography). These pages are based on the Friedmans' 1998 memoirs-Two Lucky People.
