N2  - "American students of business cycles will welcome the opportunity afforded by this translation to become better acquainted with Dr. Ernst Wagemann's Konjunkturlehre. This treatise, published two years ago in Berlin, has a character all its own derived from the author's varied experience... In all his work, Dr. Wagemann makes use whenever possible of statistical data and statistical technique... Dr. Wagemann feels an urge to understand and to explain how cyclical fluctuations come about, quite as strong as his urge to develop a successful technique of forecasting." -- From the prefatory note
