Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Unearned Increment: Or Reaping Without Sowing
OF making of books on agrarian questions there is no end. As yet, however, it cannot be said that the phase of land-law reform treated of in these pages has received the attention it deserves. Unearned increment is an expression which has long figured more or less prominently in the works of Liberal and Socialistic economists, both English and Continental, but it has not yet become a commonplace of polemic. If the present inquiry into the meaning and bearings of this still dignified phrase should take away something of its obscurity for the popular mind, a good purpose will certainly have been served.
