A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

By the title Congested Prices, I intend to describe prices made in certain unhealthy conditions of trade. There are times in the existence of our best organized commercial systems when the streams of exchanges, usually flowing quietly and evenly, become clogged by mad rushes. At such times, like the agitated blood in the human body under abnormal conditions, the excited efforts to effect transfers of property become too strong for the customary channels. There is a heaping up, a congestion of prices at weak points, and, unless speedy relief is afforded, the prostration or destruction of the commercial system follows. As the knowledge of the cause and cure of disease is the proper direction in which to seek the preservation of health, so the study of the nature of commercial crises is the best method of preserving a sound condition of trade. For this reason the investigation of prices in a state of congestion leads to the prevention of panics, and cultivates that intelligent and sober state of mind whicn confines business ventures within prudent limits. It may be noted in the outset that the subject of prices is largely within the bounds of mental science.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
