Abstract: Abstract It goes without saying that I have been deeply gratified by the suggestion that this book should be included in the London School of Economics series of reprints. Nevertheless I have been filled with misgiving. You do me wrong to take me out o’ the grave, I seem to hear this child of mine complain. ‘You begot me, he cries out’ in the twenty-third and twenty-fourth years of your age, which were but the third and fourth of your acquaintance with the Muse of Economics — you insisted, for your private reasons, on flinging me forthwith into the world. Unhousel’d, disappointed, unanel’d, … With all my imperfections on my head. — promised me that if you came back from the war you would make amends, and broke your promise — adding insult to injury some years later by stealing my theoretical bones for a horrible little younger son, himself, thank goodness, long since a corpse.’
