"--_New York Times._
"So far as the practical side of the subjects with which this volume
deals is concerned, everything has been done by the authors to keep
their work abreast of the times and the latest developments so that the
readers and students may find there the important things of contemporary
record as well as the highlights of economic history. The theoretical
side of economics has not been neglected in this general revision and
that chapter has been simplified and made more easily comprehensible to
those first entering the study of this subject. This volume maintains
the same high standard it held at the time it was first published. It is
one of the best books on this subject."--_Philadelphia Press._
"Anyone who got his foundations in political economy out of the
text-books of the last generation cannot fail to be struck with the
enormous range of subjects covered in such a book as this, compared with
what was then included; and there is always some danger that in the mind
of the student this wealth of material, important as it is, may yet
carry with it the drawback of more or less submerging the central
truths. In Professor Ely's book, the distribution of emphasis, as well
as of space, is such as to reduce this danger.
