An Essay Upon Projects is a non-fiction work written by the famous English author Daniel Defoe. The book was first published in 1697 and is considered one of Defoe's earliest works. The book is a collection of essays that explore various economic, social, and political issues of the time. Defoe uses his writing to propose a range of projects, ideas, and schemes that he believed could improve society. Defoe's essays cover a wide range of topics, including education, charity, trade, and industry. He discusses the importance of education and the need for a national system of schools. He also proposes a scheme for a national lottery to raise money for charitable causes. The book is written in a conversational style, with Defoe presenting his ideas in a straightforward and practical manner. He draws on his own experiences and observations to support his arguments, and his writing is often witty and engaging. Overall, An Essay Upon Projects is an important work in the history of economic and social thought. It provides a fascinating insight into the mind of one of England's greatest writers and thinkers, and offers valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing society in the late 17th century.The building of Babel was a right project; for indeed the true definition of a project, according to modern acceptation, is, as is said before, a vast undertaking, too big to be managed, and therefore likely enough to come to nothing. And yet, as great as they are, it is certainly true of them all, even as the projectors propose: that, according to the old tale, if so many eggs are hatched, there will be so many chickens, and those chickens may lay so many eggs more, and those eggs produce so many chickens more, and so on.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
