description: A classic that for over two decades has been hailed as the best general work on libertarianism available. Rothbard begins with a quick overview of its historical roots and then goes on to define libertarianism as resting upon one single axiom: that no man or group of men shall aggress upon the person or property of anyone else. He writes a withering critique of the chief violator of liberty: the State. Rothbard then provides penetrating libertarian solutions for many of today's most pressing problems including poverty war threats to civil liberties the education crisis and more.
