The Machinery of Freedom (ISBN 0812690699) is a book of essays by libertarian economist David Friedman.
It describes the privatization of just about everything, exploring the consequences of libertarian thought, and offering his personal statement about why he chose to be a libertarian.
Some of the topics in the book include the privatization of law (both legislation and enforcement) and the knotty problem of providing for public goods (such as national defense) in a purely libertarian society.
