Présentation de l'éditeur

The collection of Essays and Addresses contained in this volume may be described with sufficient accuracy as On Economic Questions, for they treat of banking, currency, commercial crises, the distribution of trade-profits, the effects of joint-stock enterprise, of Laissez-faire and Government interference, and cognate topics, all of which have interest for the economic student; but they were not composed from the point of view of a trained and scientific economist. To the latter title I have never been able to lay a claim. Throughout my treatment of this class of subject I have regarded them from the standpoint of a practical man of business, or of a pubhc servant anxious to inquire into financial, economic, and social facts with a view to their bearing on matters of administration or legislation, rather than as an exponent of systems of PoH tical Economy or as the adherent of any special school of thought. I have given more study to the examination and classification of facts than to the investigation of the more abstruse problems of political economy, and it has been on the analysis of complicated phenomena that I have bestowed most attention in my exclusions into the domain of economics.
