Hayek gives the main arguments for the free-market case and presents his manifesto on the "errors of socialism."

He labels as the "fatal conceit" the idea that "man is able to shape the world around him according to his wishes."

"The achievement ofThe Fatal Conceitis that it freshly shows why socialism must be refuted rather than merely dismissed—then refutes it again."—David R. Henderson,Fortune.
