It is an extraordinary analysis, a sound and clear exposition of the current economic situation and its social implications. And it is written in language that recalls the resonant common sense of a pamphleteer like Tom Paine. No words are wasted by these authors, and they have no obscure meanings up their sleeves. They describe the various social and economic forces, the conflict of these forces, the intellectual background of the New Deal, the working of finance and capital, the function of the middle classes, the plight of labor. They analyze the solutions attempted by President Roosevelt and his advisers. In short, here is a book which many thousands of people have been anxious to find. XX ABOUT THE AUTHORS. Benjamin Stolberg was educated at the Gymnasium in Munich and at Harvard. After graduation he taught economics at various midwestern universities; but since 1920 he has been a journalist, whose special field has been Labor. He has probably written more than any other American journalist on our labor movement, both for the labor press and for leading magazines and the daily press. More recently, Mr. Stolberg's work has been of a more general character, biographical, critical, and economic; he has been a feature writer for the old New York World, an editor of The Bookman, a columnist for the New York Evening Post, and a frequent contributor to The Mercury, The Atlantic Monthly, The Na[ion, Today, The New Republic, and other magazines. XX Warren Jay Vinton was born in Detroit. He went to the University of Michigan and later to Columbia. He was president of the Vinton Company, the largest firm of builders and contractors in Detroit. During the War, he was Scientific Attaché at the American Embassy in Paris. Between 1928 and 1934 he was Director of Research for the American Association for Social Security. Recently he has pursued special studies in economics at Columbia University.
