About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Work and Wages, Vol. 3: In Continuation of Lord Brassey's 'Work and Wages' and 'Foreign Work and English Wages' In the present volume, Professor Chapman completes the task which, at my instance, he undertook of collating and comparing the costs of labour, the problems of wages and employment, and the conditions of life for the great body of workers, at home and abroad. It was originally intended to limit the inquiry to the subjects dealt with, however imperfectly, by the present writer in a volume published some forty years ago under the title - adopted on the advice of Sir Arthur Helps - of 'Work and Wages.' That unpretending effort had been received with a measure of approval highly encouraging to a young and inexperienced writer. Desiring to bring the original work up to date, and being longer equal to the task, in a happy hour I turned to Professor Chapman. I desire to express my great obligation for the talent, labour, and research he has bestowed on the work which, under the prompting of the highest motives, he undertook. His researches have gone far beyond the scope of the original inquiry. With a wide and masterly sweep, in the present concluding volume, he deals with social progress, housing, public health, training, boy and girl labour, conditions of labour, home-work and the regulations laid down by law for shop-assistants, and, finally, with public aid.
