The Philosophy of Henry George is a comprehensive analysis of the economic and social theories of the American political economist and philosopher, Henry George. Written by George Raymond Geiger, the book delves into the fundamental ideas and principles that underpin George's philosophy, including his famous concept of the single tax on land values.The book begins by providing a brief biography of Henry George and an overview of his major works, including Progress and Poverty and Social Problems. It then delves into George's economic theory, which is based on the idea that land is a common resource that should be owned collectively and that the value of land should be used to fund public services.Geiger explores George's ideas about the relationship between land, labor, and capital, and how the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a few can lead to economic inequality and social unrest. He also examines George's views on the role of government in ensuring a fair and just society, and how his ideas have influenced political and social movements around the world.Overall, The Philosophy of Henry George is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of America's most influential economic thinkers. It provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the roots of modern economic theory and the ongoing debate over the role of government in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
