Individualism and Economic Order by Friedrich A. Hayek

informative slow-paced

3.0

Individualism and Economic Order is a book which contains a collection of essays published between 1935 and 1947 by famed economist Friedrich Hayek. There are some deep and dense thoughts on the contrasts between free markets and planned economies. The essays are thought provoking and helps in clarifying how individualism is a theory of society. 

The essays aren't necessarily directly connected with each other and some of them can be incredibly strenuous to read. The brilliance of this book seems to lie in elucidation of central questions related to economics (and more specifically to individualism as well as socialism). Reading this book can help the reader to think intently about how to approach this subject in a methodical and sharp manner like the author who is a master of the subject.
