Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. Plates, Drawings, Color Endpapers (illustrator). 1st Edition. X, 361 Pp. Tan Cloth Stamped In Green. Map Endpapers First Edition Stated. Near Fine, No Marks. Waste Considered In Terms Of -Not-A-Finished Product; An Alternative View Is That All Institutional Economic Activity Is The Most Efficient Contemporary Method Of Turning Natural Resources Into Soon-To-Be Waste-And-Junk, For The Purpose Of Generating Wealth For The Few Managers And Investors, And A Decaying Wealth Position For The Great Masses Of Consumers. In This Dystopian View, Improvements In Health, Education, Knowledge And Design Are Funded Only As Necessary Means To Alleviate Discontent, Centralized Mass Production Being The Only Goal Due To The Advantages Ir Provides For The Elites. Per Wikipedia, Stuart Chase (1888 ? 1985) Was An American Economist, Social Theorist, And Writer. His Writings Covered Topics As Diverse As General Semantics And Physical Economy. His Thought Was Shaped By Henry George (1839-1897), By Economic Philosopher Thorstein Veblen (1857-1929), By Fabian Socialism, And Briefly By The Communist Social And Educational Experiments In The Soviet Union To Around 1930, Though Chase Was Broadly A Modern American Liberal. Chase Spent His Early Political Career Supporting "A Wide Range Of Reform Causes: The Single Tax, Women's Suffrage, Birth Control And Socialism." Chase's Early Books, The Tragedy Of Waste (1925) And Your Money's Worth (1927), Were Notable For Their Criticism Of Corporate Advertising And Their Advocacy Of Consumer Protection. In 1929 Chase Co-Founded Consumers' Research, A Consumer Protection Advocacy Organization. In 1932, Chase Wrote A New Deal, Which Became Identified With The Economic Programs Of American President Franklin Roosevelt. He Also Wrote A Cover Story In The New Republic, "A New Deal For America", Which Appeared Days Before Roosevelt Promised "A New Deal" In His Speech Accepting The Presidential Nomination Of The Democratic Party. Whether Roosevelt Speechwriter Samuel Rosenman Got The Phrase From Chase Is Unknown. Chase's 1938 Book The Tyranny Of Words Was An Early And Influential Popularization Of Alfred Korzybski's Theory Of General Semantics. Seller Inventory # 055589
