Abstract
THE author of this illuminating book has applied himself to the elucidation of the bases and development of agricultural practice and economics, showing how improvements in methods of farming must necessarily be associated with the due recognition of economic factors if true advance is to be made. Although the text deals solely with India, the underlying principles are applicable to agriculture the world over, and the book throws fresh light upon the new problems that are constantly arising now that scientific principles and methods are being more widely applied to farm practice.
