I was very disappointed in this book, I was expecting some grand elaboration of all the threads of Libertarianism that point in the same direction towards a step away from statism. Unfortunately this book is simply a rehash of Mr. Badnarik's lecture series, the 8-hour seminar he teaches you for 100 bucks a pop (in untraceable silver coins, so as to avoid taxation I might add) without any real elaboration. If you really want to read this book without actually purchasing it/wasting time acquiring it from a library, check these archives of his seminar taped in .WMV's. http://www.archive.org/details/Michael_Badnarik ( )
