First, there is the personal in terest, which relates to the use that he may be able to make of a knowledge of economic principles in his own private undertakings, and, second, the interest which he has as a citizen in the adoption of well-considered public policies for the advancement of the community welfare.

Download or read book Introduction to Economics Classic Reprint written by John Roscoe Turner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to Economics This book is an outgrowth of classroom discussions. It contains in substance the talks on economics which have been made, for the past eleven years, to my Classes in Cornell and New York Universities. NO apology is offered for the fact that this volume is limited to a discussion of principles. Even the concluding chapters on corporations are designed to exemplify princi ples. The time has long since passed when a single volume can treat exhaustively the whole field of economics. I shall be more than content if this work justifies the scope indicated for it in the title - Introduction to Economics. Designed as an introduction, this book will serve as a means to the end of a more intelligent study of economic questions. It does not dispense with the necessity of read ing the many excellent treatises devoted to the different phases of economics; rather it distinctly calls for such read ings. It merely prepares the mind of the student for the thought contained in the more advanced and specialized works on the subject and the practical applications they reveal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Economics: An Introduction to the Study of Economics and Sociology The Changing World in Which We Live. The world in which we live is an ever changing, restless world; it is not static or at a standstill. Institutions, laws and ways of getting a living are different to-day from those prevailing when George Washington was President; and before the year 2000 is ushered in many further changes will occur. There is progress, or at least change, as the years go by in government, in moral ideals and in methods employed in industry. Constant change is the law of life, in institu tions as well as in animals. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Descriptive Economics written by Louis Lafayette Williams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Economics: An Introduction to Economic Science The work is a wide departure from the ordinary plan of most elementary works on Political Economy, or, as it is preferably called, Economics. These works generally commence with an abstract discussion of wealth or value. In the following pages the terms wealth and value are nowhere used in a technical sense, and the same is true of most of the technical terms of Economics. At the same time, however, the theories to which these terms give rise, are indirectly discussed and all the well known propositions of Economics are clearly and fully set forth. It is hoped that the student and reader will find here the collection of economic phenomena, classified and arranged as required for the more abstract reasoning and generalizations relating to the higher branches of the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Political Economy The favourable reception of the Author's Guide to the Study of Political Economy, translated and published in England and America at the suggestion and under the auspices of the late Professor Jevons, paved the way for an English version of what was begun as a third edition of that work, though it has finally shaped itself into a completely new book. In preparing the following pages, enriched by the author with important changes and valuable additions, both he and the Translator have received much encouragement and aid from the appreciative reviews of the Italian original published in the Journal of the Statistical Society, and in Professor Edgeworth's Economic Journal, as well as from the paragraph devoted to it in the Nation (New York). Following a hint given in the last-named periodical, the Translator has compiled are Index of Subjects; he has also enlarged the Index of Authors, and has added, under the designation of Sources, important anonymous works, periodicals and collections frequently referred to.

Download or read book The Elements of Economics Classic Reprint written by Charles J. Bullock and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-10 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Economics This book has been written in response to a demand for a somewhat shorter and more elementary work than the Introduction to the Study of Economics, which the author brought out in 1897. In order to meet this demand, it was necessary to make a substantially new book, in which the substance of doctrine and the gen eral groundwork remain the same, but the method of treating most subjects has been more or less radically altered. Less space has been devoted to purely theo retical questions and more descriptive and illustrative material has been presented. It is hoped that the present treatise will meet the needs of a relatively short course for beginners in eco nomics. As the work stands, it is probably extensive enough for the longest courses now given in secondary schools. If it is found too long for some of the shorter courses, the instructor can easily adapt it to the needs of his class by making a few omissions. The first chap ter can be treated in an introductory talk or lecture on the first day that the class meets; and the tenth and fifteenth chapters, treating, as they do, topics that are seldom discussed at length in an elementary work, can be readily omitted. With a few changes of this sort. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Elements of Economics written by A. Grant Fradenburgh and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Economics This book is designed to be an introduction to the science of economics. Technical discussions and difficult terminology have been avoided. The author has endeavored to write a book of practical value to the student, but is convinced that any practical work must be founded upon sound theory. There are many economic questions upon which there may be differences of opinion. Both sides of most disputed questions are given. Students should be encouraged to draw their own conclusions after weighing the evidence. While the experience of most teachers of economics has convinced them that one book should be followed as a guide, students should read references in other works. Fortunately there are many excellent books - perhaps too difficult in parts for the beginner - containing many chapters that can be read with profit by even an immature student. Among many works suitable for reference purposes the following are especially recommended: Bulloch, Introduction to the Study of Economics; Carver, Principles of Political Economy; Ely, Outlines of Economics; Fetter, Principles of Economics; Seager, Introduction to Economics; and Turner, Introduction to Economics.

Download or read book Classical Economics Reconsidered written by Thomas Sowell and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reconsideration of the macroeconomics, microeconomics, methodology, and social philosophy of the classical economists has been a small gem on the history of economic thought, written in a way accessible to students, while having much to teach scholars. The reissue of this book twenty years after its original publication is a tribute to the enduring relevance of the questions raised during the formative period of economics and to the skill with which the author analyzes them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Political Economy: Or Elementary View of the Manner in Which the Wealth of Nations Is Produced, Increased, Distributed, and Consumed If the strange discordance of opinion, which has lately been manifested on the report of the Bullion Committee, affords a lamentable evidence how little the true principles of Political Economy are understood in this country, the uncommon interest which the controversy has excited seems however to warrant the hope that the attempt to render the science more accessible will not be deemed altogether unworthy of public approbation. It is particularly for those to whom rank or fortune hold out the noble prospect of being one day called to legislate for their fellow-subjects, that I have condensed the elements of a science on which so great a share of human happiness depends, and which, on that account, can never be though repulsive by those who feel interested in the welfare of their country.

Download or read book Economics an Introduction for the General Reader Classic Reprint written by Henry Clay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Economics an Introduction for the General Reader AN apology is needed for adding another to the large num ber of books that attempt to' deal with the whole subject matter of Economics in a single volume. I offer two pleas in extenuation. The first is that nearly all existing introduc tions to the subject are intended primarily for the University student. The pious wish is generally expressed that they may be of use also to the general reader; but the general reader's special needs and opportunities are seldom borne in mind. His needs are different, inasmuch as he has not the guidance of a teacher and the leisure of the student; on the other hand, his opportunities are some compensation for these disadvan tages, since he has usually a practical interest in the economic system and an experience of its working, which the academic student lacks. It seemed, therefore, worth while to try to do for the economic organization as a whole what Bagehot and Mr. Hartley Withers have done for a part of it, the credit system to explain the principles of its construction and working in the language of ordinary life, and with reference to the experience and interests of the ordinary man. While it would need a Bagehot to succeed, I hope that the mere attempt will have done something to make it easier for the general reader to perceive the bearing of economic studies on the political and social problems in which he is interested.

Download or read book Introductory Economics Classic Reprint written by Alvin S. Johnson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introductory Economics A cursory ex'amination of the contents of this book will probably give the impression that the theoretical aspects of the science receive in it greater emphasis than present opinion among economics teachers can approve. The writer may be permitted to urge, in his own defense, that the method which he has employed was chosen not without careful consideration of the existing situation in the field of economics instruction. In the present stage of university evolution, economics is almost everywhere taught by men who have been trained in the science; a text-book writer is therefore justified in relying upon the teacher for the supplying of many of the concrete facts which in a given situation are most effective for purposes of instruction. An efficient teacher can base a highly practical course upon a text-book which is fundamentally theoretical. Moreover, in most colleges and universities the general course in economics is usually followed by special courses, and these, in order to attract any considerable number of students, must be practical. It is not too much to say that, for a majority of students, theoretical study begins and ends with the introductory course. Such a course ought, therefore, to present a reasonably thorough study of the general principles Of the science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Political Economy It has seemed to the author that one difficulty with many economic treatises is that they have no one clear aim, that they are, so to speak, straddles. This difficulty he is seeking to avoid, and consequently he has had only one class in mind in this revision. It is first of all the general reader for whom the book is designed, and it is the general reader whose needs have been kept constantly in view. For him it primarily exists, and to his requirements have been entirely subordinated all considerations based on its possible use as a text-book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual to an Introduction to Economics The object of this chapter is to explain the nature and. Scope of the subject and the method by which it may be studied. Too much stress should not be laid on the method of mathematical logic treated in the passage describing the syllogism. If a course in logic is given in the school an opportunity for correlation will be presented, but otherwise the bare idea of the method is all that is necessary. The essential points are, the meaning of the term economic law, and the relation of economics to other social and physical sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Economic Performance: An Introduction to Economics Section III utilizes the material, revised and brought up to date, which previously appeared as Economic Development.1 In it I acknowledged my unusually large debt to other economists, so that I shall not repeat my thanks for the generous help that I have received. But I must again men tion my increasing indebtedness to the Economics Department of City College, which continues to have my developing ideas inflicted upon them on all possible occasions. So many in the Department have helped in so many ways that it would be quite unfair at this time to single anyone out for special thanks with the exception of Elliot Zupnick, who has worked closely with me for the last year or so, commenting on the entire manu script, attending to a great many details, and providing substantial drafts of the two Appendices (though the final responsibility for them is, of course, mine). The contribution of my wife, no economist but a remarkable editor, has steadily increased. In fact, in all fairness I must this time confess that, were it not for her help, this volume would have been infinitely less comprehensible and have appeared far less rapidly.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Agricultural Economics But while the farmer may be more directly dependent upon Nature than are those engaged in the industries of the city, he is by no means inde pendent of his fellow men. The pioneer farmer who looked primarily to the satisfaction of the wants of his own household may have selected the crops which he cultivated, without giving any thought to the needs of other men; but the modern agriculturist, who produces primarily for the market, and procures upon the market a large share of the necessaries, conveniences, and luxuries of life, is bound to take into account the demands of his fellow beings. The modern farmer must consider the price for which the produce can be sold as well as the conditions of production, if he would manage his farm successfully.
