First printing - and Simon Kuznets copy - of Rostow's famous work in which Rostow, probably for the first time, introduced an analytical tool and framework to analyze growth and progress in historical and contemporary economics. Rostow states in the preface that: ""I should like to acknowledge valuable exchanges with [...] S. S. Kuznets"" (Preface, p. IX).Rostow's work is to a large extent a response to Marx's stages (of feudalism, capitalism, socialism, and communism). Rostow's categorized economic growth and development in four stages: 1.The traditional society" 2.The pre-condition for take off 3.The drive to maturity" 4.The age of high mass consumption. ""Rostow's exposition has received very wide attention and approval, perhaps for several reasons. First, it is evolutionary" second, it is grounded in historical studies third, it seems to show a predestined affluence for all finally, it presents a case for an inner logic and drive from one stage to the next that requires no conscious decision-making or deliberate efforts to promote growth" it is analytic without being programmatic."" (Ibid.).Walt Whitman Rostow (1916-2003) had a prominent role in the shaping of US foreign policy in Southeast Asia during the 1960s, he was a staunch anti-communist, and was noted for a belief in the efficacy of capitalism and free enterprise. Rostow served as a major adviser on national security affairs under the Kennedy and Johnson administrations..In 1960 Rostow published the book ""The Stages of Economic Growth: A non-communist manifesto"", in which he elaborated the ideas presented in the present book. Simon Smith Kuznets (1901 - 1985) Russian American economist was awarded the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences for ""his empirically founded interpretation of economic growth which has led to new and deepened insight into the economic and social structure and process of development"".Kuznets revolutionized econometrics with the important book ""National Income and Its Composition, 1919-1938. Published in 1941 which eventually formed the famous Kuznets Curve. This work relied to a large extent on Bowley's work on national income.

First edition of probably the most important and influential work ever to be published within development economics. The work had profound influence not only on contemporary economics and politics but also on economic history where it marked an entirely new period of historiography and theories within economic history. His theory became one of the important concepts in the theory of modernization in the social evolutionism.""Rostow's analysis of economic growth was based on the developmental stages through which each country goes. Rostow saw each country evolving through five stages of economic growth. These are the traditional society, the preconditions for take-off, the take-off [The take-off is really an industrial revolution that arrives when the old barriers and resistances to steady growth are finally overcome], the drive to maturity, and the age of high mass consumption."" (Oser, The Evolution of Economic Thought, P. 368).""Rostow's exposition has received very wide attention and approval, perhaps for several reasons. First, it is evolutionary" second, it is grounded in historical studies third, it seems to show a predestined affluence for all finally, it presents a case for an inner logic and drive from one stage to the next that requires no conscious decision-making or deliberate efforts to promote growth" it is analytic without being programmatic.""
