Should We Trust Antitrust Laws?

"Because the questions of antitrust are still very much with us, there is always need for a good book to remind us how much harm antitrust actions can do. Unfortunately, 'The Abolition of Antitrust' (Transaction, 176 pages, $39.95) is not that book. A collection of essays on the economics, legal history, and morality of antitrust, its essayists quote liberally and lovingly from Ayn Rand. Unsurprisingly, their take on antitrust laws is that they should not exist. More surprisingly, they fail to make even a superficially convincing case for this view." [The New York Sun - NY Newspaper]
