Summary: I enjoyed the heck out of this book.
Comment: I read this after reading Road to Serfdom. It's obviously a denser work, though relatively short. Still, the pages come across not so much as theory as just common sense put into more complex language so the academia nuts might be able to understand it also.

Summary: A masterpiece about philosophical bases of liberal thought
Comment: Hayek's classical book is against the totalitarians and their thought about legislation. He responses them saying that the legislation is not the tool to reconstruct the people and the economical relationships between them, but it is the method to explain the irrationally and naturally developping law more clearly. Additionally he argues the cartesian method of thinking because of its results which refuse the social evolution. Therefore Hayek finds the philosophical base of totalitarian thought in the belief that "we can create the welfare with law, if we arrange it logically". That's why he calls every kind of totalitarian thought as "constructive cartesian rationalism", because all of them want to reform the whole world, law and order from the beginning to realize their specific outcome like in DesCartes' method. (I think that it's the same as "the social engineer" description of Sir Karl Popper.)
