The story of Rose and Milton Friedman’s incredible lives and influential work told in their own words, now with a new foreword by Sebastian Edwards.

In Two Lucky People, Rose and Milton Friedman provide a memorable and lively account of their lives, the people they knew, and the work they shared. Their involvement with world leaders and many of this century's most important public policy issues moves their memoir beyond the merely personal and makes fascinating reading for anyone interested in the history of twentieth-century ideas.

This new edition of the Friedmans’ jointly authored memoir includes a foreword by economist Sebastian Edwards, the Henry Ford II Professor of International Economics at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Arvustused

"The Friedmans come across as the last Enlightenment thinkers in a post-modern world. . . . This is a book that restores your faith in reasoned discourse. . . . There really are people who believe in scholarly exchange as a way to discover truth." -- David Brooks, New York Times Book Review * Praise for original edition * "A rich autobiographical and historical panorama." -- Wall Street Journal * Praise for original edition * "The Friedmans are a feisty couple, who clearly delight in their lives and each other. And shining through their reticence, and their conservatism, is a decency that even liberals will recognize." -- Washington Post Book World * Praise for original edition * "This engaging book recounts the life and contributions of one of America's most influential writers and economists in the second half of the twentieth century. And her husband's no slouch either. . . . An indispensable guide through the evolution of economic thought." -- National Review * Praise for original edition * "A thought-provoking book and one rich in history, the personal history of the Friedmans . . . and the cultural and political history of our country." -- Chicago Sun-Times * Praise for original edition * "[ Two Lucky People] is almost like a letter from a couple of old friendsa couple of old friends who had a long, compelling intellectual journey, came to know some of the great world leaders of this century, and had 60 years of happy, supportive marriage." -- N. Gregory Mankiw, Fortune * Praise for original edition *
