Abstract
"Edward W. Younkins’s book, Flourishing and Happiness in a Free Society, does an excellent job at integrating key insights from various philosophic and economic traditions to formulate a consistent moral framework for society. The book is best suited for those familiar with philosophy and inclined to support a minimal state. While Younkins does not write for the general public, he does a great job of educating readers who have the intellectual power to tackle difficult topics but lack prior exposure to the details of the material he discusses.
