Title

An Inquiry into The Nature and Causes of The Wealth of Nations.

Description

Wealth of Nations is a text covering economics theory and the foundations of modern economics. It explores market dynamics, the division of labour, and the core concepts of economic thought. This 1850 edition includes contributions by John Ramsey McCulloch with comprehensive contextualising of Smith’s portraits of political science before, during, and after the publication of Wealth of Nations. The book acts as a guide to the pressing dilemma of how to make a capitalist economy more meaningful and humane.
