“Those first 300 pages are rather difficult. And they’re difficult for a variety of different reasons for both professional economists as well as just regular people.

I’m going to talk about that a little differently here today.”
Presented at the 2024 Human Action Conference on Saturday, 18 May 2024, at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama.
