Excerpt from The Decay of Capitalist Civilisation

We may as well forestall the obvious criticism that this little book is not "constructive." It is not intended to supply a plan of reconstruction. For such a plan, in considerable detail, the reader is referred to the works advertised in the final pages; and particularly to A Constitution for the Socialist Commonwealth of Great Britain, and, on another plane, The Prevention of Destitution; or, in the form of a political programme, the pamphlet of the British Labour Party, Labour and the New Social Order (33 Eccleston Square, London. Price Threepence).

We gratefully acknowledge the help of various friends, who will excuse the omission of their names. But we cannot refrain from expressing our deepest gratitude to our oldest friend and comrade, Mr. Bernard Shaw, who kindly undertook the revision of the proofs in the midst of a General Election when we were otherwise engaged.

41 Grosvenor Road,

Westminster, January 1923
