Book Description
================
Hayek gives the main arguments for the free-market case and presents his manifesto on the "errors of socialism." Hayek
argues that socialism has, from its origins, been mistaken on factual, and even on logical, grounds and that its
repeated failures in the many different practical applications of socialist ideas that this century has witnessed were
the direct outcome of these errors. He labels as the "fatal conceit" the idea that "man is able to shape the world
around him according to his wishes."
