Industrial Efficiency and State Intervention
Nick Tiratsoo and Jim Tomlinson describe and assess the Labour Party's development of a policy of improving industrial efficiency.

Following upon a visit to the United States (where he lectured in 1913), the author never forgot the first impressions of the amazing efficiency displayed on all hands by Americans of all grades of society, and pledged himself after investigating these, to endeavour to establish some of these principles of hum...
