Description
A collection of ten speeches and lectures by Murray N. Rothbard, spanning from the 1970s to the early 1990s. He is speaking in a small classroom setting, explaining economics from the ground up, and systematically in the manner of a classic 101 course on the topic--but with a revolutionary approach. Free-wheeling, generously peppered with anecdotes, packed with humor (and the man's own infectious laughter), Murray Rothbard's lectures on free-market economics range from the most basic foundation of supply and demand to the complexities of fractional reserve banking and the business cycle.

Customer Reviews
An excellent overview of basic Economics
I found the series very informative and Rothbard is a good speaker. Though he frequently colors his lectures with political commentary (it's hard to avoid when discussing economics), I don't think that the listener must be a Libertarian in order to enjoy and learn from these lectures.
Great intro to the Austrian school
This series is a good one to start with if you are just getting into Austrian Econ.
