Book Overview

""The Physiology of Industry"" is a book written by Albert Frederick Mummery in 1889, which aims to challenge the existing theories of economics. Mummery argues that the traditional economic theories are based on fallacies and do not take into account the physiological aspects of industry. He believes that the principles of physiology, such as the laws of growth and decay, can be applied to the study of economics to provide a more accurate understanding of the workings of industry. The book is divided into chapters that cover topics such as production, consumption, exchange, and distribution. Mummery also discusses the role of labor, capital, and technology in the economy. The author's ideas are presented in a clear and concise manner, making the book accessible to a wide audience.
