The article focuses on the book "New Zealand in Evolution," written by Guy H. Scholefield. Now that the leading Governments of the world have taken the plunge into Socialism, at least as a war measure, a new interest is attached to the little island state at the Antipodes which led the way. How New Zealand experimented in novel functions of government is the main subject of Scholefield's well-studied, well-arranged, and well-written account of his country's economic evolution. The main obstacle to New Zealand's development lay in the physical conditions.
