Human Action--a treatise on laissez-faire capitalism by Ludwig von
Mises--is a historically important and classic publication on economics,
and yet it can be an intimidating work due to its length and formal
style. Choice: Cooperation, Enterprise, and Human Action, however,
skillfully relays the main insights from Human Action in a style that
will resonate with modern readers. The book assumes no prior knowledge
in economics or other fields, and, when necessary, it provides the
historical and scholarly context necessary to explain the contribution
Mises makes on a particular issue. To faithfully reproduce the material
in Human Action, this work mirrors its basic structure, providing
readers with an enjoyable and educational introduction to the life's
work of one of history's most important economists.
