The Wealth of Nations
by Adam Smith

It is symbolic that Adam Smith’s masterpiece of economic analysis, The Wealth of Nations, used to be first published in 1776, the similar year as the Declaration of Independence.

In his book, Smith fervently extolled the simple yet enlightened notion that persons are fully able to setting and regulating prices for their own goods and services and products. He argued passionately in favor of free trade, yet stood up for the little guy. The Wealth of Nations provided the first–and still probably the most eloquent–integrated description of the workings of a market economy.

The result of Smith’s efforts is a witty, highly readable work of genius filled with prescient theories that form the basis of a thriving capitalist system. This unabridged edition offers the brand new reader a fresh have a look at a timeless and seminal work that revolutionized the way in which governments and individuals view the creation and dispersion of wealth–and that continues to influence our economy right as much as the present day.
