Methods of Industrial Remuneration. By David F. Schloss. (Williams and

Norgate.)—Mr. Schloss examines with scientific accuracy and freedom from prejudice, the phenomena of paid labour. Time-work, piece-work, and the payment of wages accordingly, progressive wages, contracts, co-operative work, profit- sharing, are among the subjects which he discusses. It would be an injustice to epitomise, or to give in any brief form the results of his investigations. The volume may be unhesitatingly recommended as a storehouse of valuable facts, in the collection of which no pains have been spared.
