"One of the few text books that I actually read all of. It was an easy read with a lot of interesting, and relevant information. It was pretty easy going for a required reading, but one that I enjoyed. It's short, but suprisingly helpful and informative. I didn't feel that the author wasted time. There was very little repetition in the book, which is always nice. He gets right to the point he wants to make, and then moves on to the next one."

"Dull and surprisingly uninformative. Most of the history in this book is very basic stuff, and when it comes to his broader analysis, Friedman is too noncommittal."
