When I first
approached Doug Erlandson about taking a break from
his normal heavy philosophizing to review my Selected Salvos 2 book he
responded with "I am sympathetic to
libertarianism, so I'm sure I'll find these essays interesting" and when I
mentioned my first book he said, "I'm sure I'll also enjoy Selected Salvos
1."
That meant two
reviews for the price of none!
For Selected Salvos 1, under the heading "Good primer on what libertarianism is" he begins with: "This is a fun book to read" and describes it as "lighthearted, humorous, occasionally self-deprecating, and now and then acerbic."
For Selected Salvos 1, under the heading "Good primer on what libertarianism is" he begins with: "This is a fun book to read" and describes it as "lighthearted, humorous, occasionally self-deprecating, and now and then acerbic."
Read his entire review here along with one other Five Star review.
His Review of Salvos
2 is titled "Thoughtful libertarian
fare" and makes the point that "If
you have libertarian leanings you'll love what Mr. Reed has to say. If you
don't, you probably won't read this book (even though you should)" and
then concludes with "I highly recommend Volume 2 of 'Selected Salvos,'
just as I did Volume 1."
This entire review is here along with another pair of 5-star reviews.
Amazon Top 50
Reviewer, taught philosophy in my home state, is libertarian minded and gave me
