It explains clearly and simply the production distribution and exchange of goods and services, both within a country and internationally. The activities of plants, firms and industries are examined, so are the influences upon them of great institutions: banks, insurance companies, trade unions and loval and central governing bodies. The part played by governments in controlling abuses, promoting social progress and managing prosperity is fully described, and likely trends - such as the control of population - considered. This historical development of Economics is incidentally recounted. 376 pp.
