      ab: The article provides information on several new books related to various economic issues. The first book "Einfübrung in die Konjunkturstatistik," by J.Müller focuses on statistical analyses and provides techniques to handle quantitative data. The second book "Narrenspiegel der Statistik: die Umrisse eines statistiscben Weltbildes," by E.Wagemann is designed to teach the layman how to understand and interpret statistical information. In this book there is a discussion of the nature of statistical masses and numbers as distinct from mathematical numbers in which the errors and abuses of statistics arising out of inaccurate definitions of the subjects are treated. The books "Planning Under Socialism and Other Addresses," by W.H. Beveridge, "Going Left: The Left Wing Formulates a Draft for a Program for the Socialist Party of the United States," "Soviet Science," by J.G. Crawther and "Marxism and the National and Colonial Question," by J.Stalin, focus on Socialism and Cooperative Enterprises.
