The Match Tax: A Problem Of Finance (1871) is a book written by William Stanley Jevons that discusses the financial implications of a proposed tax on matches. In the book, Jevons argues that the proposed tax would have a negative impact on the economy and society as a whole. He presents a detailed analysis of the production and consumption of matches, and how a tax on them would affect both producers and consumers. Jevons also explores the broader economic implications of the proposed tax, including its potential impact on other industries and the overall economy. The book is a fascinating insight into the economic theories of the time, and provides valuable insights into the challenges of taxation and financial policy in the 19th century. Overall, The Match Tax: A Problem Of Finance is a thought-provoking and informative read for anyone interested in the history of economics and finance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
