Somewhere between [30 and 40 million Americans](https://www.cato.org/publications/policy-analysis/libertarian-vote-age-obama) hold libertarian views. Are you one of them? [Take ](https://www.cato.org/libertarianmind)[this quiz](https://www.cato.org/libertarianmind/libertarian-quiz) — excerpted from [David Boaz](https://www.cato.org/people/david-boaz)’s new book [*The Libertarian Mind: A Manifesto for Freedom*](https://www.cato.org/libertarianmind) —* and find out just how libertarian you really are!

[The quiz](https://www.cato.org/libertarianmind/libertarian-quiz) launched just over a week ago and almost 30,000 people have already taken it. Have you? Use #LibertarianMind to share your results on social media, tag your friends, and see how they measure up!

Of course, the quiz represents a very simplified version of libertarian principles and very few people will have “perfect scores” in any one direction, but it’s a great way to open up a discussion with friends and family. If that discussion leads to more curiosity about libertarianism and its principles, point them in our direction…or give them a their very own copy of *[The Libertarian Mind](https://www.cato.org/libertarianmind)*!

Haven’t had a chance to read [*The Libertarian Mind*](https://www.cato.org/libertarianmind) yet? We have a limited number of copies to give away. [Take the quiz ](https://www.cato.org/libertarianmind/libertarian-quiz)to learn the details! You can also [follow *The Libertarian Mind* on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/LibertarianMindTheBook) for news on the book, media appearances, and more.
