Publisher's Synopsis
Profit and Loss in Man is a book written by Alphonso Alva Hopkins and published in 1908. The book explores the concept of profit and loss in the context of human life and behavior. Hopkins argues that just as businesses aim to maximize profits and minimize losses, individuals should also strive to do the same in their personal lives.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the concept of profit and loss, and how it applies to human life. Hopkins discusses the importance of setting goals and making decisions that will lead to long-term gains, rather than short-term gains that may result in greater losses in the future. He also emphasizes the importance of self-control and discipline in achieving success.The second part of the book delves into specific areas where profit and loss can be applied in daily life, such as health, relationships, and finances. Hopkins provides practical advice on how to make wise choices in these areas, and how to avoid common pitfalls that can lead to losses.Overall, Profit and Loss in Man is a thought-provoking book that encourages readers to think critically about their own lives and the choices they make. It provides practical guidance on how to achieve success and avoid failure, and is still relevant today, more than a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
