The books discussed were The Triple Challenge by Francis Williams,^[1] The Theory of the Leisure Class by Thorstein Veblen^[2] Time was Away by Alan Ross,^[3] and Managers, Men and Morale by Wilfred Brown and Winifred Raphael.^[4]

It should not be confused with a 1954 series which had the same title, but with a different format.
