Risk, Uncertainty and Profit / No. 16 in Series of Reprints of Scarce Tracts on Economic and Political Science / With an additional introductory essay hitherto unpublished

Knight, Frank H., Ph.D. / Professor of Economics in the University of Chicago

Edité par London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), London, 1948

Title page states "Houghton Mifflin Company 1921," but that's misleading. Preceding page notes: "First reprinted 1933 . . . Seventh impression 1948 / With an additional note by the Author." So this is in fact a London School of Economics 1940s reprint, "Printed by the Replika process in Great Britain by Lund Humphries / London * Bradford." Gilt titles to spine and front board faded but still legible -- NO jacket. Board corners warped open about 3/8th-inch (1 cm.) PON "Walker Technical College, Hartshill, Oakengates, Shropshire" stamped to blank FFE. "This work was first published in 1921, as number xxxi in Messrs. Hart, Schaffner & Marx' series of prize essays on economics," the current publishers note. "In recent years it has been out of print. . . ." Includes a 36-page author's "Preface to the Re-issue" and an additional 15-page "Preface for the Reprint of 1948." Considerable discussion of time preference. We will not ship this book to France. 381 pp. including index. Reduced from $475. As with all our items priced higher than $90, this item will be shipped "signature required.".
