Studies social and economic issues through the writings of great thinkers of the age: Quesnay, Bentham, Malthus, Ricardo, Smith, Marx, Engels, and others.
"The economic and social issues of the Industrial Revolution, discussed by the great thinkers of the age: Quesnay, Bentham, Malthus, Ricardo, Smith, Marx, Engels, and many others. The way from the spinning jenny to the Communist state is revealed in the writings of these men. Mathus' discussion of population, Jeremy Bentham's utilitarianism, Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations, the cold logic of the financial wizard David Ricardo, the shocking records of contemporary child labor investigations are the stepping stones of Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx. This is a textbook for the twentieth century written by the nineteenth." -- from back cover.
