Hayek is #1...
on Amazon.com right now, with Road to Serfdom topping the Internet bookseller's charts right now, apparently because of Glenn Beck's program last night, where he called it a "Mike Tyson right hook to socialism."

I was given the book in the 70s and all I had to read was the title, a couple of pages. So obvious like the jitterbug it plum evaded me.
Glad to hear it’s being read.
excellent
Frieda Hayek.
Since about August 2008 we’ve been on the road to serfdom described by Hayek. I recall that, about a year and a half ago, I told a group of friends that you don’t really need to read the newspaper. The individual news items might be unique and interesting, but their pattern is already reasoned out and predicted by Hayek. And it was George Bush who took Serfdom exit. Obama took a left turn on Serfdom Road and hit the gas.
Von Mises' Bureaucracy is equally great -- an under-appreciated (short) classic.
