The Capitalist Manifesto:
The Historic, Economic and Philosophic Case for Laissez-Faire
by Andrew Bernstein

The Capitalist Manifesto defends capitalism as the world's most moral and practical social system. This book is written for the rational mind, whether the reader is a professional intellectual or an intelligent layman. It makes the case for individual rights and freedom in terms intelligible to all rational men.

"The key to explaining capitalism's unparalleled economic success is dual: to show that it alone is the system that guarantees individual liberties, and to demonstrate that political liberty is an indispensable requirement of man's life on earth." -- Andrew Bernstein

Heart of a Pagan: The Story of Swoop

“...(M)asterly crafted...I found myself unable to put the book down...”
Victor H. Miller, Adjunct Professor of Philosophy

Swoop - the hero of Andrew Bernstein's novel, Heart of a Pagan,
is not only a visionary, a philosopher, and a genius - he's the world's greatest athlete. And he's on a mission from the gods - the pagan gods of Ancient Greece - to inspire the worship and achievement of mental, physical, and moral excellence.

Thus, using basketball as a metaphor, through the irrepressible character of Swoop, and the unstoppable, unbeatable Swoop Troop, this story takes us from the conquests of Alexander the Great and the feats of Achilles and Odysseus to the basketball court - and back again.
