ABSTRACT

The author has carefully scrutinized the facts upon which his argument is based. It is a matter for regret that he did not develop more fully his evidence as to the existence of an international group of capitalists who mould public opinion and direct public action in order to be able to profit by the fluctuations of the stock market. These forces and manipulations deserve most careful and detailed study. A few minor points are subject to criticism. On page 307 the author seems to imply that Alexander the Great had actually established his peace throughout India; and the reference to the zemindary system on page 314 is misleading.
