Book Reviews of Liberty versus the Tyranny of Socialism: Controversial Essays

Book Review: Controversy? What controversy??
Summary: 5 Stars

Dr. Walter E. Williams is careful enough to include the proof in his writing and to debunk the silly folk. I had read most of these essays as they appeared in various newspapers but to have them all together in one book is really great. It puts me in the frame of accepting TRUTH, which is what Dr. Williams is all about. To paraphrase Keats beauty is truth, truth is beauty that's all one need know in life that's all there is to know.

NOTE: Never leave out the E. in Dr. Williams name there are too many kooques named simply Walter WIlliams.

Summary of Liberty versus the Tyranny of Socialism: Controversial Essays

In unyielding defense of personal liberty

In this selected collection of his syndicated newspaper columns, Walter E. Williams once again takes on the left wing's most sacred cows with provocative insights and brutal honesty. He offers his sometimes controversial views on education, health, the environment, government, law and society, race, and a range of other topics, always with an uncompromising reverence for personal liberty and the principles laid out in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution.


Do we want socialized medicine? Do peace treaties produce peace? What's wrong with education? What's discrimination? Do we really care about children? Is this the America we want? Williams answers these and other provocative questions with his usual unflinching candor. Although many of these thoughtful, hard-hitting essays focus on the growth of government and our loss of liberty, many others demonstrate how the tools of free market economics can be used to improve our lives in ways ordinary people can understand - not just in the realm of trade and the cost of goods and services but in such diverse areas as racial discrimination, national defense, and even marriage.
