Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays in Taxation This book was originally published in 1895, and the favor with which it was received has rendered necessary a new edition every two or three years. Owing partly to the pressure of other occupations and partly to a shrinking from the arduous labor which would have been required to keep the presentation up to date, these successive editions contained but slight changes. Now however, after the lapse of almost eighteen years, the progress of the world, both in fiscal facts and in economic theory, has been so marked as to render any further delay impossible if the book is to remain a half-way satisfactory interpretation of actual conditions. I therefore determined to subject the volume to a careful revision and, where necessary, to rewrite entire sections or even chapters. Moreover, in the interval, not a few of my addresses and articles on germane topics have appeared; and it seemed opportune to incorporate a selection from these into the book, even at the risk of some inevitable repetition in a few pages here and there. As a consequence, the thirteen chapters of the earlier editions have grown to twenty-one; and this together with the additions to the remainder of the work has resulted in a volume of almost double the size of the original. To a large extent, therefore, the present edition may be regarded as a substantially new work. To recount here the names of the many friends who have assisted me in various ways in the preparation of this volume would be impossible. But I desire to make especial mention of Mr. A. C. Pleydell, the secretary of the New York Tax Reform Association, who has been good enough to read the entire proof of this edition, and to favor me with many suggestions out of the abundance of his rich experience in practical tax reform.
