Elementary Principles Of Economics PDF Download

Excerpt from Elementary Principles of Economics: Together With a Short Sketch of Economic History In offering this textbook to teachers and students of economics, the authors feel that a brief word of explanation and suggestion may afford help in judging the quality of the book as well as in the use of the book, should favoring judgment result in its adoption for classroom work. It has been the aim of the authors first of all to make the book teachable. In choice and rejection of substantive and illustrative material and in its arrangement; in the form of the chapters, paragraphs, sentences, and words; in all that can affect the ease or difficulty of conveying an understanding of economics to the beginner, this complicated quality of teachableness has been earnestly and constantly sought. Fortunately for the welfare of the science of economics, there is more or less disagreement among economists as to many points of theory. But manifestly an elementary textbook on the subject is not a place in which conflicting views should be presented and discussed, even if space would permit. Nor have the authors wished to use the pages of the book for the propagation of views in which they might chance to differ with other economists.
