An Inquiry Into The Nature And Causes Of The Wealth Of Nations
Paperback Edition: 1/1977
Adam Smiths The Wealth of Nations was recognized as a landmark of human thought upon its publication in 1776.
As the first scientific argument for the principles of political economy, it is the point of departure for all subsequent economic thought. Smiths theories of capital accumulation, growth, and secular change, among others, continue to be influential in modern economics.
This reprint of Edwin Cannans definitive 1904 edition of The Wealth of Nations includes Cannans famous introduction, notes, and a full index, as well as a new preface written especially for this edition by the distinguished economist George J. Stigler. Mr. Stiglers preface will be of value for anyone wishing to see the contemporary relevance of Adam Smiths thought.
