Divided into four parts, this text is structured as follows. Part One examines the extent to which the inequality of incomes is guided by ethical principles, Part Two illustrates the growth of the theory of distribution in the hands of successive generations of economists, Part Three develops the theory on the subject of the division of income between categories, and Part Four looks at the division of income between people and the causes of that inequality, paying particular attention to the factor of inherited wealth.

This textbook includes material on the general survey on the theory of taxation, other forms of public revenue, public expenditure and public debts. There are chapters on modern theories of budgetary policy and the controversial cheap money policy, pursued by the author when he was in charge of the British Treasury from 1945-1947.

Hugh Dalton was a British Labour Party economist and politician, who served as Chancellor of the Exchequer from 1945 to 1947 under Clement Atlee. After surviving the First World War, he was drawn in to active politics with the belief that, rightly handled, it could put an end to war. This title, originally published in 1928, is based on his journeys of political observation in Europe, where he examined the new conditions created by the war and subsequent events. He outlines some central problems and some provisional solutions.

First published in 1935, Practical Socialism for Britain presents an assessment of the Labour government's policy options and aggressively advocates for socialism Britain's panacea. Citing apathy and panic-mongering as the greatest enemies of the Labour Party, the author asserts that the Labour Party can restore meaning and sincerity to politics by bringing about tangible development and eliminating the militarisation of politics. He also exhorts the Crown and the civil services to be politically neutral and pledge allegiance to the Constitution. Strictly anti-fascist and anti-communist, this book will be of interest to students of history, political science, and government.

Part 2: Illustrates the growth of the theory of distribution in the hands of successive generations of economists.

J. Pincus Delmont is the most successful, and ethically challenged attorney north of Las Vegas, and he's Richard Page's only hope to escape execution by lethal injection. Pinky quickly determines his client's tale of betrayal and murder leads to Southern California and demands investigative help from Bear Zarbarte who owes him a sizeable chunk of money. The Bear is as big as a tree, street wise, sort of trustworthy, and not averse to cracking the occasional head when the need arises. A grumbling Bear drives south where he discovers, and falls for Flo Sonderlund-a woman with a body to kill for, and a mouth as caustic as a bucket of lye. By hook and by crook, Pinky, the Bear, and Flo pry a solution to the murder from a string of chumps and patsies that stretches from the fertile hills of Tuscany, Italy to eastern wasteland of Nevada, the home of the Loneliest Road In America.

Two books in one volume-two first hand accounts by British subalterns in contrasting theatres of the Great War The first of the books in this double volume tells of the activities of a battery of the Royal Field Artillery-one of the many horse drawn units of guns and gunners who fought an arduous, heroic, dangerous and often tragic war on the Western Front during World War 1, often trading shell for shell with the German Artillery. The words of the author, a young artillery officer, draw the reader into the heart of the intimate group that constituted the gun battery. The story of him, his brother officers and their men embraces the battles of Loos, the Ypres Salient, Messines, Third Ypres, Cambrai, Arras and finally the breakthrough of the allied armies at the Hindenburg Line which heralded the end of the war in 1918. In the second book we learn about the largely unreported contribution the British made towards the Italian war effort. As a member of one of ten batteries of artillery sent to Italy in 1917, the author served in the campaign in the Alps including the actions at Isonzo, Piave and the retreat from Caporetto. Present on the Italian front until the rout of the Austrians in the Veneto and final victory, he provides rare information about the British at war on this 'sideshow' front, valuable details about guns and battery life and an insight into the personalities and activities of his Italian allies With the Guns brings the campaigns of the field gunners back to life for modern readers.
