Features: Economic conditions are constantly changing, and each era observes its own problems in its own way. In Britain, mainland Europe, and the United States, the study of economics is now more diligent than before; but all this activity only more clearly demonstrates that economics is—and necessarily must be—a slow and continuously developing science. This book is an introductory text for the study of economics; in some aspects—not in all—it is similar to foundational works on economics—Ricardo and other economists placed such works at the beginning of the several volumes they wrote on economics. This book does not involve special topics such as monetary policy or market organization; as for issues like industrial organization, employment, and wage problems, they are primarily studied in their normal states.
