- More about On Freedom
Cass Sunstein's book "On Freedom" explores the concept of freedom and argues that freedom of choice is not enough to be truly free. To be free, individuals need the ability to navigate life and make decisions that promote their well-being. The book draws on perspectives from various fields and suggests that people often need guidance and tools to achieve their desired outcomes.

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Cost-Benefit Revolution, a brisk, provocative book that shows what freedom really means—and requires—today
In this groundbreaking book, New York Times bestselling author Cass Sunstein challenges us to rethink freedom. He argues that freedom of choice is not enough; we must also be able to navigate life. People often need guidance, similar to a GPS device, to help them reach their desired destination, whether it concerns health, money, jobs, children, or relationships.
In both rich and poor countries, citizens often lack the knowledge to reach their desired outcome. This lack of freedom makes them unfree. Additionally, individuals face significant challenges in self-control, as many of their decisions today can negatively impact their lives tomorrow. Moreover, in some cases, we may be equally satisfied with alternative choices, such as a different partner, career, or place to live, raising the difficult question of which outcome best promotes our well-being.
Accessible and engaging, On Freedom explores a crucial aspect of the human condition that philosophers and economists have overlooked for a long time. It provides insights from the humanities, religion, arts, social science, and law, demonstrating what it takes to make freedom a reality. By examining the choices we make and the consequences they have, Sunstein offers a thought-provoking exploration of the true meaning and essence of freedom in our modern world.
