Excerpt from Banking and Business
The authors have therefore endeavored, in this volume, after the first preliminary and general ideas have been considered, to introduce the student to the current organization and business practice of com mercial banks. In so doing, moreover, it has been sought to emphasize less the internal organization of the bank itself than its business aspect as viewed from the outside. Particular attention has been given to the financing of the individual enterprise, the prob lems which must be met by the business man, in whatever occupation engaged, in connection with the transaction of the banking side of his operations. A succeeding section of the book has for reasons of convenience been devoted largely to a descriptive out line of banking in various aspects, an understanding of which seems necessary to full comprehension of present banking problems and conditions, although, strictly speaking, they would not find a place in a treatise upon banking in the commercial or narrower sense of the term. These phases of the discussion having been completed, the way is paved for a relatively brief outline statement of the relation of the bank to the monetary system and Of its function in the develop ment of prices.

Excerpt from Banking and Business
In this volume the authors have undertaken to present an outline of modern American banking in its relation to other business. Their intention has been to prepare a university and college text that would be of service in teaching those elements of banking which are most needed in the schools of business and commerce now in process of development at many of our universities.
The arrangement of topics and the general direction of the discussion corresponds, broadly speaking, to the organization of the work in the introductory course in banking in the School of Business of Columbia University. The teaching of banking in American colleges and universities has for many years past been closely associated or combined with instruction in the theory of money. Most college courses, we believe, are designated as courses in "Money and Banking." A customary way of presenting the material is to begin with a historical survey of the growth and development of money, followed, perhaps, by a sketch of the credit instruments which have in later years superseded it as mediums of exchange. This is followed, as a rule, by chapters dealing with the theory of money, prices, and the broader or more doctrinal side of the study. Banking is, in many instances, dealt with as a derivative of, or annex to, the monetary discussion, which is given chief place.
