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.

Natural Principles Regulating Railway Rates (Classic Reprint)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the principles regulating railroad rates in the United States and Europe, arguing that state control has historically inhibited the investment of capital in new lines, leading to higher rates of transportation. The author, an experienced railroad manager, asserts that rates are naturally regulated by the forces of supply and demand and competition between rail and water routes and markets. The author applies these principles to various forms of discrimination in rates, arguing that while some discriminations favor persons, places, or things, they are generally based on differences in the cost of service or the volume of traffic. The author concludes that to prohibit these discriminations would also prohibit competition, leading to higher rates and reduced traffic, ultimately harming consumers and the economy. This book offers valuable insights into the complex factors that determine railroad rates, emphasizing the importance of free-market principles in regulating transportation costs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334471193_0
