Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 5: July 1953 Despite his failure to achieve the impossible goal he set for himself, I would recommend the book as the basic text for an undergraduate class in agricultural economics. I can conceive of an excellent undergraduate course being developed with Dr. Black's text as a starting point. To do this the instructor would need to use a well-chosen supplementary reading list and to expand and illustrate thoroughly many of the Vital points raised by the author.
