    Paperback (Forgotten Books, April 19, 2018)
    Excerpt from Ping-Pong (Registered Trademark U. S. No. 36, 854): The Game and How to Play ItMany people must have asked themselves, why ping-pong in SO short a time has become so amazingly popular. The answer, I think, is easy, and will be found in the following facts: Firstly, all who have played must allow that it is an excellent game, excellent because it afi'ords amusement for hours together, and because there is no small amount of Skill required to play it at all well; this will account for much of its popularity. But there are other and, I think, weightier reasons. It has been called the poor man's billiards, not that it resembles that king of indoor games any further than that balls are used in the playing of both, but because it supplies its place in the houses of those whose rooms and means are too small to permit the adoption of billiards, since a very small outlay will purchase all accessories necessary for ping-pong; and if the proportions mentioned in a later chapter of this work be Observed as regards height of net, not only can an excellent game be had on a small table, but any one can learn to play it well and will find himself able to do SO on a larger table; play on a small table being excel lent practice for play on the club-size table.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

    Paperback (Leopold Classic Library, Dec. 18, 2015)
    About the Book Economic history involves the study of economies or economic phenomena rooted in the past. Economic history analysis is undertaken using a number of historical methods, statistical methods and require the application of economic theory to historical situations and institutions. Topics include financial and business history, which overlap with areas of social history such as demography and labor history. Many early books on economic history described businesses, economies or industries, with relatively less emphasis on econometrics or theoretical analyses.Also in this Book Economics reference books deal with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. As a social science, in economics the focus is on the behaviour and interactions of economic agents, and how whole economies work. Titles in our collection may be categorized into microeconomics, which analyzes basic elements in the economy, including individual agents (like households, firms, buyers, and sellers) and markets and their interactions. In macroeconomics the emphasis is on the economy as a whole (i.e. aggregated production, consumption, savings, and investment) and factors influencing it, including the use of resources (such as labour, capital, and land), inflation, economic growth, and the public policies influencing these issues. These include monetary policy (influencing interest rates) and fiscal policy (influencing expenditures).And in this Book Marketing books study the techniques and policies that are used to create, keep and satisfy the customer. This is one of the key components of business management, encapsulating processes used to create, communicate, and deliver value propositions to customers, clients, partners, and society as a whole. Originally meaning “going to a market with goods for sale”, marketing is "a set of processes that are interconnected and interdependent with other functions" of a business that are focussed on stimulating customer interest and satisfactionAbout us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades. While these books may have occasional imperfections, we consider that only hand checking of every page ensures readable content without poor picture quality, blurred or missing text etc. That's why we: republish only hand checked books; that are high quality; enabling readers to see classic books in original formats; that are unlikely to have missing or blurred pages. You can search "Leopold Classic Library" in categories of your interest to find other books in our extensive collection. Happy reading!
