See all formats and editions

In 1776, the publication of The Wealth of Nations marked the birth of economics as an independent discipline.

Afterwards, it was hailed as "the pioneering work of modern economics", "the Bible of Western economics", "Encyclopedia of Economics", "one of the top ten works that influence world history" and so on.

Premier Wen also said: "The Wealth of Nations and The Moral Sentiments are equally important in my heart".

Modern economic research is carried out on its basis, and all mainstream economic theories must refer to it.

In The Wealth of Nations, the author systematically analyzed the internal laws of the generation, distribution and continuous operation of national wealth for the first time.

It believes that human self-interested motives are like an "invisible hand" that secretly pushes the economy forward.

At the same time, it also emphasized that the government should intervene as little as possible and give free trade development.

This book invites senior economics experts to condense the original work, retaining the essence of the author's thoughts and the complete theoretical system.

In addition, the book is equipped with 420 exquisite color illustrations, which combine the original work with history and reality for readers to appreciate.
