TRANSLATOR’S NOTE

I HAVE to express my sincere thanks to Miss Anna Schwarzschild, who read a portion of the manuscript with great care, and to Dr. Eduard Rosenbaum, who helped me out of many difficulties. The Appendix consists of Wicksell’s last published article, translated from the original Swedish by Mrs H. Norberg.

Wicksell’s Geldzins und Güterpreise was published at Jena by Gustav Fischer in 1898. Such footnotes as I have found it necessary to insert are enclosed in square brackets.
