Liberty Defined: 50 Essential Issues That Affect Our Freedom Audiobook

" This is a fantastic format for a book about politics. Paul discusses pressing matters like his stance on abortion issue by issue in chapter like sections. I would recommend this to anyone who wants know exactly where paul stands on issues, without having to listen to rumours and slander. Its worth noting that if you are familiar with the principles of liberty most of this will be old information. "

" In Dr. Paul's latest book he addresses 50 hot issues that effect every aspect of our lives. From abortion to envy, monetary policy and creation v. evolution, Dr Paul attacks it using the libertarian axioms of non-aggression and private property. I highly recommend looking through it even if your not a fan of Ron Paul. I'm sure you'll find yourself agreeing on more topics then you would think. "

" Well, this was not surprisingly a little uneven. Like Paul's speaking presence, it was at times repetitive and even incoherent (he likes to digress in writing, too.) But he's still the most visible presence in America speaking up for true liberty, so we need his voice, imperfect though it be. Actually he does have a knack for explaining some of the political issues and realities; I prefer other writers' economic explanations though. "

" A great book if your interested in getting Ron Pauls views on an assortment of topics. Otherwise its not for you to read "

" I love how it is put together, broken down issue by issue...great reference material. "

" Ron Paul explains his reasoning for various current political issues based on the Constitution and common sense. "

" I love this book. So many topics I've been interested in (and irate about) that get broken down and explained through the lens of Liberty. They certainly didn't teach me 1% of this in school. If I can help it, my children will learn the principles of personal liberty, prosperity, and compassion before they're ever indoctrinated with the delicate intricacies of FDR's New Deal or similar hogwash they make the focus of U.S. History curriculum. "

" I once heard Ron Paul say, "You can't have liberty in pieces." Say what you want about Ron Paul, but he is consistent -- a rarity among those inside the Capitol Beltway. "

" Interesting book, I really have never thought Ron Paul was anyone I would be interested in but, now give him a second look. "

" A good starting point for those interested in Ron Paul and Libertarianism. "

" Not a great read. Good information for the complete novice about what Dr. Paul's beliefs are, but for anyone else this is pretty dry stuff and it was difficult to get through. "

" Dr. Ron Paul is a very interesting fellow. I did not agree with all his ideas however I do like some of his views on the Free Market Society and the need for what he calls sound money. "

" As Always Ron Paul does a great job of looking at things from a very different perspective and making you sympathetic to his views. Recommended for anyone planning on voting in the primary. "

" For those that want to put their politics to the test, this is a must read. Particularly the chapter on Empire. "

" My hope is all my friends and family would at least read this book. In my opinion this book outlines the main values of true liberalism and how that mean personal freedoms and that the one is more important than the group. In my philosphy this should be one of the first books to read. "

" Great book! Not a wasted word. Each issue is discussed briefly, followed by a list of books to read if you're interested in more depth. "

" gives detailed explanation on dozens of topics importment to a free society. Every Libertarian,freedom lover or Ron Paul fan should have this book in his arsenal. "

" The Texas congressman Ron Paul overviews 50 essential issues in America and how they affect our liberty. "

" Four and a half stars. "

" Book club pic. Best thing I can say about this book is that with the quality of the writing it's pretty clear that Ron Paul wrote this one himself instead farming it out to a ghostwriter. "

" I once heard Ron Paul say, "You can't have liberty in pieces." Say what you want about Ron Paul, but he is consistent -- a rarity among those inside the Capitol Beltway. "

" I find I agree with many of Ron Paul's sentiments and arguments in this book, especially liked what he had to say on abortion and marriage. "

" I like Ron Paul's thoughts on foreign policy, war, the cia, security, terrorism, and some other chapters. I may not agree with all the things in all the chapters but if anything he is the most sincere of the so-called Republican candidates, and appears to actually give a @#&* about the country. "

" Interesting intellectual arguments but underlying premises are unconvincing. "

" 3.5 stars. An issue by issue glimpse of Ron Paul's thoughts and positions. These short essays don't have much punch but are still worth reading. Even if your opinion differs there is a substantial intelligence to Paul's ideas seriously lacking in 99.99% of the three branches of government. "

" Dr. Paul hits the nail on the head once more. I love Ron Paul, and I love all that he stands for. This is a MUST read before voting in the primaries. I can't say enough good things about Ron Paul or this book. "

" didn't like the format. more for ron paul novices than super fans "
