Read explores "the miraculous workings of tiny creativities, the ultimate constituents of the free market, that institution on which depend all liberties, and thus man's emergence. And [the] State must have its perversions diagnosed if we are clearly to understand how it functions as the inhibitor and enemy of the free market."
