This book, in the tradition of Robert Nozick's "Anarchy, State, and Utopia, " sheds new light on persistent philosophical questions about the nature and justification of political authority. Skoble's discussion draws upon law, economics, and game theory to examine limited-state and anarchist theories from the standpoint of liberty and human rights.
