A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

THIS volume is prepared not only with a view to its usefulness in class work, study clubs, debating societies, etc., but in a larger sense for the general reader. While strictly scientific, the treatment of the topic is also thoroughly practical. Beginning with a sketch of the rise of free government, there is a discussion of the problems of statesmanship and politics, foreign policy, colonialism, the Monroe doctrine, protection and free trade, trusts, labor unions, municipal government, etc. In connection with every chapter there are helpful references to standard authorities, with suggestions for collateral reading, extracts from these readings, and a series of questions for review or debate.
Opinions of Outlines of Political Science:
"We approve the scope, plan and purposes of the volume, and the earnestness and intelligence displayed by the able authors . . . The chapters discussing protection and free trade will be found worthy of the most careful attention of students, and will prove of extraordinary educational value."—Philadelphia Press.
"A brief, clear, and well-balanced text book. It suggests means of further study and reading. It is a book to make good and well-informed citizens. The chapters on money, taxation, the state and capital, and the state and labor, are especially timely and useful."—Congregationalist and Christian World.
"This is an introduction to the study of the functions of government and will be useful to young men who are not students but who wish to be intelligent citizens. . . . The style is clear and interesting. The general point of view is rather conservative,— a commendable thing in a book of this sort."— Christian Register.
"The work is scholarly, yet the method of presentation enables the student to grasp the vital points and master the subject. It is a good book for young men's clubs and literary societies, and will be useful in high school classes."—Education.
