    About this ebook

    When this 1876 volume was published, the notion that employers owed obligations to their workers was considered a radical idea. Walker, one of the most prominent economists of his time, advocates here for profit sharing, improved access to trade and industrial schools, and other reforms. His theories on wages, wealth distribution, money, and social economics revolutionized the field of economics.
