[Problems of Poverty by John A. Hobson]@TWC D-Link bookProblems of Poverty CHAPTER XI 46/72
A large quantity of valuable material exists in _The Report of the Industrial Remuneration Conference_, and in the _Reports of the Lords' Committee on the Sweating System_ and of the _Labour Commission_.
Among shorter and more accessible works dealing with the industrial causes of poverty and the application of industrial remedies, Toynbee's _Industrial Revolution_ (Rivington); Gibbins' _Industrial History of England (University Extension Series_, Methuen & Co.); and Jevons'_The State in Relation to Labour (English Citizen Series)_, will be found most useful.
For a clear understanding of the relation of economic theory to the facts of labour and poverty, J.E.
Symes' _Political Economy_ (Rivington), and Marshall's _Economies of Industry_are specially recommended. Among the large mass of books and pamphlets bearing on special subjects connected with _Problems of Poverty_, the following are most useful.
