I beat him on the impact of regulation on land use, hands down. Frankly, by comparison, both his arguments and his data are childishly over-simplified. His work is designed for a popular audience; it is by no means innovative.
On a quick look, without seeing the book, it certainly sounds good.If it is as good as it appear, and if Professor Sowell has critiqued it negatively, you have a beef. But to say that I admire Dr. Sowell greatly does not imply that no one else needs to analyze anything.
Indeed, I have my own hobby horse which I would love to have the ability to expand into a book, and which to my knowledge Dr. Sowell nor any other major analyst has replicated elsewhere.The Right to KnowAll I have to show for my analysis is documentation of my theory in the form of vanity threads on FR.
