Excerpt from An Introduction to Political EconomyThe character of the work and the strictly limited space' have led the author reluctantly to omit many topics. It has been thought better to write something suggestive, and in keeping with the spirit of the book, about a comparatively few topics than to attempt to say a word in didactic style about every topic which comes under the general subject of political economy.The book is called an Introduction to Political Ebon omy. It is hoped that this work will interest its readers, will excite curiosity, will open their minds, and will thus lead them to continue their economic studies, -for which suggestions are given in one of the parts into which the' work is divided. The impression which it is desired that this book should leave is something like this: Political economy is an interesting and most important branch of human knowledge. I now see what it is all about, and hav ing surveyed the field I propose to take up special questions, like taxation and the labor movement, and study them care fully. I do not feel so much that I really know a great deal about political economy as that I am now in a position to' learn something.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
