Also in this issue: cultural change and its beneficiaries; the Federal Reserve’s “independence”; remembrances of Leonard Liggio and Henry Manne; and the economic case against “gross domestic product.” Plus reviews of recent books by: Thomas Piketty, Timothy Roth, Wayne Gruden, Barry Asmus, Richard Timberlake, and Anthony de Jasay.
