In a very fine internal condition. ~ FIRST EDITION, corrected. This work again strengthened Necker's (1732-1804) popularity. It contributed to his return as directeur-général des finances in 1788, after his dismissal in 1781. It is a valuable book "to those who would study how the finances of France were managed in the last days of the old regime." (Palgrave 1894-1901). "The work was extremely popular (it is said to have sold 80.000 copies, despite being in three volumes) and served to promote the author's reputation." (Carpenter, Economic bestsellers, p. 23).

"During the last generation, American readers of German appear to have relied, as a rule, for information about early phases of German economic thought, chiefly upon two writers, Kautz ("Die Geschichtliche Entwickelung der National-Oekonomik und ihrer Literatur") and Roscher. Of Kautz, it is enough to say that he was of the rear guard of the rhetoricians. His book is wonderfully plausible, if not lucid, reading. Its early pages appear to express methodological conclusions which the maturest scholarship has not superseded." - Albion W. Small, "The Cameralists: The Pioneers…
