Beschreibung des Verlags

In The Law of Civilization and Decay (1895), Adams presents his theory that historical events are determined by economic conditions.  While believing that economic concerns—trade and the accumulation of wealth, for example—provided a primary impetus for civilization, he also believed that, unchecked, they invariably led to collapse.
