Primitive man lived in caves and ate uncooked food. Society has advanced through a series of stages from the crude methods of the cave man to our own highly complicated economic systems. Each system contains within itself influences from the systems which preceded it; that is, every system is an outgrowth of the past. In order to present a complete view of our economic system, an economist must give considerable attention to economic development over a period of time. The subject matter of this text deals primarily with human desires and how these desires are satisfied; Chap ter I covers briefly the history of the origin and progress of our economic system.
