Synopsis THE ENGINEERS AND THE PRICE SYSTEM by : Thorstein Veblen
In 'The Engineers and the Price System' by Thorstein Veblen, the author explores the impact of engineering advancements on the economic and social structure of society. Veblen delves into the ways in which the rise of engineering as a profession has influenced the price system, challenging traditional economic theories. Written in Veblen's characteristic satirical and critical style, the book offers a unique perspective on the relationship between technology, economics, and social norms in the early 20th century. Veblen's thought-provoking analysis sheds light on the complexities of modern industrial society and the role of engineers within it. Thorstein Veblen, a prominent economist and sociologist, draws on his expertise in both fields to dissect the economic implications of technological progress. His background as a professor and researcher gives him a nuanced understanding of the interconnectedness of engineering innovation and the price system. Veblen's bold insights challenge readers to reconsider conventional wisdom and question the prevailing economic ideologies of his time. For readers interested in the intersection of technology, economics, and society, 'The Engineers and the Price System' is a must-read. Veblen's sharp wit and analytical prowess make this book a timeless and relevant contribution to the fields of economics and sociology.

Synopsis Engineering Economics (Classic Reprint) by : J. A. L. Waddell D. Sc
Excerpt from Engineering Economics AS stated by Lavis, The application of economics to railroad location and construction consists in the proper adjustment and balance between the first cost as exemplified by the straight line of uniform rate of gradient and the first cost Of a line or a series of lines which deviates from it in more or less degree, and the difference in cost of operation due to this deviation (whether lateral or vertical), and the consequent introduction of added resistance and, therefore, added cost of operation. In railroad engineering there are, certainly, quite complicated preliminary economic problems to solve, among which may be mentioned the following.
