"WOMEN AND ECONOMICS"
Since John Stuart Mill's essay there has been no book dealing with the
whole position of women to approach it in originality of conception and
brilliancy of exposition.--_London Chronicle._
The most significant utterance on the subject since Mill's "Subjection
of Women."--_The Nation._
It is the strongest book on the woman question that has yet been
published.--_Minneapolis Journal._
A remarkable book. A work on economics that has not a dull page,--the
work of a woman about women that has not a flippant word.--_Boston
Transcript._
This book unites in a remarkable degree the charm of a brilliantly
written essay with the inevitable logic of a proposition of Euclid.
Nothing that we have read for many a long day can approach in clearness
of conception, in power of arrangement, and in lucidity of expression
the argument developed in the first seven chapters of this remarkable
book.--_Westminster Gazette, London._
Will be widely read and discussed as the cleverest, fairest, most
forcible presentation of the view of the rapidly increasing group who
look with favor on the extension of industrial employment to
women.--_Political Science Quarterly._
By mail of Charlton Co., $1.50.
"Women and Economics" has been translated into German,
Dutch, Italian, Hungarian, Russian and Japanese.
"CONCERNING CHILDREN"
WANTED:--A philanthropist, to give a copy to every English-speaking
parent.--_The Times, New York._
Should be read by every mother in the land.--_The Press, New York._
Wholesomely disturbing book that deserves to be read for its own
sake.--_Chicago Dial._
By mail of Charlton Co., $1.25.
"Concerning Children" has been translated into German, Dutch
and Yiddish.
