Dear Friends,

 The Open Markets Institute is pleased to let you know that St. Martin’s Press will publish Barry Lynn’s new book, LIBERTY FROM ALL MASTERS, on September 29.

LIBERTY FROM ALL MASTERS is the culminating work of Barry’s 20-year study of how monopoly power threatens individual liberty, democracy, prosperity, and national security. The book builds in important ways on Lynn’s vanguard analysis in Cornered and End of the Line. In LIBERTY FROM ALL MASTERS, Lynn details how Google, Amazon, and Facebook have developed the ability to manipulate the flows of news, information, and business in America, and are fast transforming this power into autocratic systems of control. As importantly, Lynn shows us what we can do about it, by detailing how Americans over the course of two centuries built a “System of Liberty,” and by laying out how we can put these same tools to work again today.

Preorder the book here today.

LIBERTY FROM ALL MASTERS has received a starred review from Kirkus Reviews and powerful endorsements from Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Romer, Francis Fukuyama, K.
