“In spite of the brevity of his work—the result of conciseness rather than of superficiality—Mr. Spargo gives a satisfactory general view of his subject, and his book is to be recommended especially as a foundation for a more detailed knowledge to be afterwards acquired.” Eunice Follansbee.

“As an elementary presentation Mr. Spargo’s work is distinctly meritorious, in spite of undoubted faults of style, exposition, and reasoning. Economically it need mislead no one. Sociologically it will prove stimulating to many. It is probably well worth publishing, though it adds nothing to the specialist’s knowledge of socialist history or theory.” R. F. Hoxie.

“It is to be regretted that in preparing such an able hand-book for the propagation of socialistic ideas, the author did not give more serious consideration to the later developments of economic thought and thus bring the ‘economics of socialism’ into closer harmony with the economics of economists.” Henry R. Seager.
