Inscribed by Author. blue end-papers; inscribed by the author with the words: "With compliments & thanks B.E.S." This outstanding new volume, designed to introduce the reader to economic growth as it has taken place in industrialized countries, is the first such collection in its field. In his generous Introduction-a thorough examination of economic history and its relation to economic theory-Professor Supple provides a comprehensive framework for the essays that follow: detailed studies of the development of modem economies in six key nations. Covering the period from the start of the Industrial Revolution in Britain to the transformation of the Japanese and Russian economies, these readings encompass "the period in which modem industrialization became not only a possibility but an irreversible fact." Students of history and of economics will find this a valuable and helpful book: logical, sound in presentation, and, most important, broad enough in time span to make clear, by the use of historical materials, the actual experience of economic development on a national scale.
