Aggiungi al carrelloTaschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'Profits' is a landmark contribution to economic theory, authored by William Trufant Foster and Waddill Catchings. This comprehensive study delves into the fundamental mechanics of the capitalist system, focusing on the distribution of wealth and the factors that drive economic cycles. The authors present a rigorous analysis of how profits are generated and, more importantly, how the failure of consumer purchasing power to keep pace with production leads to periods of depression and unemployment.Known for introducing the influential underconsumption theory, this work challenges traditional economic assumptions of its time. Foster and Catchings argue that for a business system to remain stable, the money paid out to consumers must be sufficient to purchase the goods produced at a price that yields a profit. By examining the roles of savings, investment, and monetary flow, 'Profits' offers a deep exploration of the structural imbalances that trigger financial crises.

Condition is overall Very Good-.** William Trufant Foster (1879-1950) and Waddill Catchings (1879-1967), classmates at Harvard University, were American economists who collaborated on a series of economics books that were highly influential in the United States in the 1920s. Pre-Keynesians whose work would be overshadowed by the impact of Keynes and The General Theory, Foster and Catchings worked on the problem of underconsumption, the paradox of thrift, and the role of economic intervention.** The provenance is notable. Sam A. Lewisohn (1884-1951), native of New York City, Princeton University Class of 1904, was a financier, philanthropist, patron of art and music, penologist, and author. His interests and contributions in many fields were notable. With regard to this volume, Lewisohn, in an advisory role to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, helped to frame the Social Security Act. It would seem that his economic views were friendly to those of Foster and Catchings, who inscribed this copy "For Sam A. Lewisohn, From William T. Foster and Waddill Catchings," in January 1928.** Printed at The Riverside Press Cambridge.
