Friedrich A. von Hayek · 1944
A speaker recommends a book written by someone else.
“So I think it's one of the greatest books in the last 200 years. But the thesis that if the government starts regulating economic matters a la Roosevelt, then we're on the road to something like Stalin or Hitler, that's not true.”
Why: It is one of the greatest books in the last 200 years, despite having a central thesis that is partially flawed.

“if you go back even to Hayek, his fundamental description of an economy is local intelligence. Tacit knowledge is distributed throughout the economy.”
