(John Bates) Essentials of Economic Theory As Applied to Modern Problems of Industry and Public Policy Produced by Curtis Weyant, Ritu Aggarwal and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Essentials of Economic Theory" by John Bates Clark is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book explores the fundamental concepts of economics, focusing on the laws governing the creation and distribution of wealth, as well as the dynamics of industrial society. Clark's work seeks to articulate how changing economic forces impact society and individual well-being, setting the stage for deeper discussions on economic dynamics. The opening portion of the book introduces readers to the core concepts of economics and the nature of wealth. Clark emphasizes that wealth creation and its utilization are governed by natural laws, highlighting the interconnectedness of labor, capital, and the economy's structure. He discusses the significant transitions taking place within industrial society, such as population growth, capital accumulation, and evolving consumer needs. By establishing definitions of wealth and introducing the distinction between economic statics and dynamics, Clark sets the groundwork for a detailed examination of the principles that guide economic progress and the implications of monopoly and government intervention in the economy.
