Ideas For A Science Of Good Government: In Addresses, Letters And Articles On A Strictly National Currency, Tariff And Civil Service (1883) is a collection of speeches, letters, and articles written by Peter Cooper, an American industrialist and philanthropist. In this book, Cooper shares his ideas on how to improve the government and the economy of the United States. He advocates for a strict national currency, a protective tariff to promote American industry, and a civil service system based on merit rather than political connections. Cooper argues that these measures would lead to a more prosperous and just society. The book provides a historical perspective on the economic and political issues of the late 19th century and offers insights into the thinking of one of America's most prominent businessmen and reformers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
