This book, while it deals with the elements of marketing, is not a book for beginners. Marketing in the aspects here treated is of the nature of an appH ed science; and in somewhat the same way that a treatment of the elements of bridge design would necessarily take for granted a firm grounding in underlying sciences, so it has been necessary to assume here a clear grasp of economic principles. At the same time, tliese principles have been dealt with as applied to this special branch of business, and for that reason there has been an avoidance, perhaps too scrupulous, of the terminology of the science. Moreover, the treatment of the subject has been confined to the concrete problems of merchandise distribution. The larger aspects of the subject have been left to others better fitted to deal with them. The able discussion of this phase of the subject which has appeared in Alfred Marshall sI ndustry and Trade, published after these chapters were ready for the press, fully covers that field. In the collateral readings here listed numerous references to this remarkable book are included. My purpose has been to present a simple statement of the problems of marketing by functions.
