"The dialogue written in the form of a play, tells the dramatic story of American Industrial progress during the 19th century and set forth the policy requirements for continued economic advancement. From decade to decade the participants, who represent the various groups in society, survey current economic developments, seeking to answer the age-old question, whether there can be progressive improvemnt in living standards for the masses. The discussions are thus concerned with fundamental economic issues which have been recurrent throughout our history. The result is a dramatic story of the forcces which have overcome the limitations of nature and transformed the 'statec' state, which earlier writers foresaw, into a dynamic society. The method of presentatiion is unique in economic literature. The dialogues put basic econimic concepts and principles in simple, realistic terms which sharpen and clarify the issues." from the jacket flap. Not Price Clipped. Lightly age-toned spine dj.
