Valuation Its Nature and Laws : Being an Introduction to the General Theory of Value PDF
by Wilbur Marshall Urban
Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
The point of view, the unexpressed assumptions in the half light of which any book, even the most scientific, is written, and which sometimes find their way into the preface, are often more informing and more interesting than the book itself.
This should be eminently true in the case of a book on Values, for here, if anywhere, the writer might, perhaps, be permitted to wear his heart on his sleeve.
It is not my purpose, however, to add this glimmer of possible human interest to an otherwise dull book.
In so far as the statement of such presuppositions may have any significance for the main developments of the book, they are presented with due objectivity and detachment in the Introduction, and carried - with equal care, it is to be hoped-to some of their more obvious conclusions in the final chapter.
It is unnecessary to anticipate them here. But with regard to the more general background - the relation of such a book to the characteristic assumptions of the time - the situa tion is different.
Here a prefatory word may be a word in season it may not only illuminate some of the dark places, but may even give the key to an appreciation if not to a complete understanding of the entire discussion.
