About this book

Walter Block's classic work defends victimless crimes and controversial economic practices, from profiteering and gouging to bribery and blackmail. By taking extreme examples and showing how free-market principles apply even in these cases, it demonstrates the workability and morality of the market. Beneath the provocation, it is also a serious work of microeconomic theory explaining how economic forces operate in everyday affairs.
