Bertrand is a fine writer. This works best as a primer for liberty novices to be introduced to a number of ways to look at American society through the anarcho-capitalist lens (e.g., IP, copyright, healthcare, free speech, property rights, taxation, the prison system, economic freedom, regulatory capture, etc.). The many works he references are much better reads, but I applaud his efforts. If anything, he provides a solid reading list at the end.
