Incentives For Life, Personal And Public is a book written by James Meeker Ludlow and originally published in 1902.

Ludlow argues that incentives are a powerful tool for shaping behavior and achieving goals, both in personal and public contexts. He examines various types of incentives, including financial rewards, social recognition, and personal fulfillment, and discusses how they can be used to encourage positive behaviors and discourage negative ones.The book is divided into two main sections. The first section focuses on personal incentives, such as the pursuit of wealth, fame, and personal growth. Ludlow discusses the benefits and drawbacks of each type of incentive and provides examples of individuals who have successfully pursued them.The second section of the book explores public incentives, such as government policies and social movements. Ludlow argues that these incentives can be used to create positive change in society, but must be carefully crafted and implemented to be effective.Overall, Incentives For Life, Personal And Public provides a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the power of incentives and their role in shaping human behavior.
