This book was read for David Schweickart's "Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy" course taught within the Philosophy Department at Loyola University Chicago.
For that course each student was asked to align with one of three ideological tracks, all of which were covered in the assigned readings. Most, knowing the professor's own inclinations, chose the Socialist track. Next in size was the Capitalist group. Least attractive were the middle-of-the-road Liberals, represented primarily by the writings of John Kenneth Galbraith. I, liking Galbraith for his wit and style, chose the Liberal track despite my personal inclination to Schweickart's Market Socialism.
