Présentation de l'éditeur

September 1912. MY DEAR ,I had intended to ask you to allow me to dedicate this book to you; I have decided, however, to preface it with an open letter addressed to you anonymously, without your permission. Let me explain the reasons which have led me to spare you this request. Finding myself unexpectedly enjoying a spell of absolute intellectual independence, after twenty-five years or, to put it grandiloquently, a quarter of a century of unconscious intellectual submission, my thoughts naturally turned to the contemplation of the whole system of wage-earning stretching out into the past behind me. I had tested it, in complete economic dependence, from somewhere very near the bottom to the top, and had discovered it to be pretty consistently rotten throughout. My own employers had been not a few, many others I had known intimately in their work.
