Milton Friedman

I have myself written a book on Milton Friedman. Unfortunately for non-Danish-speaking audiences, it’s in Danish. In that book I called Milton Friedman a pragmatic revolutionary. What Milton Friedman did, both in his academic work on economic theory and history, monetary policy and so forth, and as a policy advocate deeply engaged in policy debates, was to take things and make them very, very easy to understand. And he was able to convince people of his argument by making those arguments very logically.
