Hayek's 'The Road to Serfdom' was published, it was compared by critics to John Stuart Mill's celebrated essay 'On Liberty.' Now Mr. Hayek gives us a positive statement of the principles of a free society that in scope and breadth is more like a new 'Wealth of Nations.' Written for the general reader, it provides a modern restatement of the ideals of freedom that have guided, and must continue to guide, the growth of Western civilization." - from dust-jacket blurb.
