A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book has been prepared for those who are beginners in the study of economics, or who are making their first serious study of the business of social hving. It is an attempt to describe the way in which we hve and work with one another in modern Ufe in our effort to gratify our wants. The material is an outgrowth of a considerable period of experience and experiment both with secondary school students and with beginners in university classes in economics. The book has been used successfully in mimeographed form in a variety of institutions and has in its present form the benefit of many suggestions from these sources. At the University of Chicago it has been used, with much supplementary material, in a course for freshmen. This course is followed by one of equal length on value and distribution. In the minds of the authors, the distinguishing feature of the volume is the effort to depict social structures in terms of what they do. The functions, the uses, the ivork, of banks, of business organization, of competition, of specialization, of government, of scientific management, of education, and of the other multitudinous agencies which together make up our modern wantgratifying machine, are the matters with which the book is concerned. It is a study of the devices which exist in industrial society, primarily in terms of their activities, and, quite secondarily, in terms of their structures. The more experienced reader may be surprised that separate sections on value and distribution, which hold such central places in many texts, do not appear in this work. The authors believe that in an introductory work of the type here presented the violation, if any, is chiefly to tradition.
