5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful glance at economic theory, February 28, 1999
By A Customer
Mr. Schmookler does an excellent job critiquing conventional economic theory of all stripes in this book. He shows the virtues and flaws of markets in good detail. The finest part of this work, though, in my opinion, was its fine rejection of libertarian economic ideas, especially since it utilizes the words of the libertarians themselves in doing so. Mr. Schmookler has obviously studied the views of numerous conventional and alternative economists and he does a fine job of explaining their views and problems with them. Just an excellent work - easily the finest text I've seen on economics yet. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Illusion of Choice, January 3, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
An excellent thought provoking book of definite importance in our current economic and political environment.
The author has thoroughly researched his topic and lays out his conclusions in easy to follow chapters. I had borrowed the book from the county library and was thrilled to find my own copy of this book on Amazon.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, February 13, 2006
This review is from: Illusion of Choice, The (Suny Series, Environmental Public Policy) (Paperback)
Schmookler can write. And much of it rings in like poetry. Along with his major book, The Parable of the Tribes, this is one of my favorites.
