Description

Explore a foundational text in economic history with The Physiology of Industry (Routledge Revivals). Originally published in 1889, this work by Hobson challenges established contemporary theories regarding the economics of labour, supply, and demand. It serves as a primary source for understanding the early development of the theory of underconsumption. This volume provides a deep look into the nature of production and the complex relationship between wealth and consumption. Readers will gain insight into how the supply of goods influences economic structures. The text also touches upon the intellectual history behind the work, including the debates with businessmen that shaped Hobson's theories and the involvement of Mummery in the development of these ideas. Perfect for students, historians, and researchers in anthropology and sociology, this Routledge Revival brings a significant historical perspective back to the modern academic landscape. It offers a rare opportunity to study the roots of economic thought through a lens that shaped many subsequent theories in the field.
