Abstract
THIS book arose from a proposal made to the National Institute by the Advertising Associaan that an impartial inquiry should be made into the ecnoomic effects of advertising. The authors have carried out a very difficult task with extreme competence and are to be complimented particularly on their method of presentation. The main emphasis has been placed on the period 1934-38, with the result that we now have a comprehensive statistical survey of advertising expenditure in the United Kingdom for the pre-war years. Figures relating to the revenue of the Press extend to more recent years—up to 1944.
