About this ebook

The story of Rose and Milton Friedman’s incredible lives and influential work told in their own words, now with a new foreword by Sebastian Edwards.

In Two Lucky People, Rose and Milton Friedman provide a memorable and lively account of their lives, the people they knew, and the work they shared. Their involvement with world leaders and many of this century's most important public policy issues moves their memoir beyond the merely personal and makes fascinating reading for anyone interested in the history of twentieth-century ideas.

This new edition of the Friedmans’ jointly authored memoir includes a foreword by economist Sebastian Edwards, the Henry Ford II Professor of International Economics at the University of California, Los Angeles.
