આ ઇ-પુસ્તક વિશે

Adam Smith's seminal work, "The Wealth of Nations," intricately explores the foundations of economic theory and the implications of capitalism in the evolving landscape of the 18th century. With a focus on the division of labor, free markets, and the invisible hand guiding self-interest towards societal benefit, Smith employs both empirical observations and philosophical discourse, crafting a narrative that is as much a critique of mercantilism as it is a celebration of economic progress. His articulate prose and methodical structure not only situate the book as a cornerstone of classical economics but also invite readers to consider the ethical dimensions of wealth and prosperity. Smith, a Scottish moral philosopher, was deeply influenced by the socio-political climate of his time, particularly the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and individuality. His academic background in moral philosophy and deep interest in human behavior shaped his insights into how individuals operate within economic systems. This personal and intellectual context enables a rich exploration of how moral sentiments intersect with economic assertions, a characteristic that distinguishes his work from many contemporaries. "The Wealth of Nations" is essential for anyone seeking to understand the evolution of economic thought and the principles that govern modern capitalist societies. Whether you are a scholar, student, or curious reader, Smith's profound analysis will enhance your comprehension of economic dynamics and their profound impact on human interactions.

લેખક વિશે

Adam Smith (1723–1790) was a Scottish economist, philosopher, and author, who is widely acclaimed as the father of modern economics. His magnum opus, 'An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations,' commonly referred to as 'The Wealth of Nations,' is a seminal work in classical economics. Published in 1776, it marks the beginning of economic theory as a coherent discipline and offers a critique of mercantilism, the dominant economic theory of the time. Smith's book laid the groundwork for the free market system, advocating for the division of labor, free trade, and the 'invisible hand' — the concept that individual self-interest can lead to beneficial outcomes for society as a whole. A strong proponent of laissez-faire economic policies, Smith's ideas have shaped the economic policies of many nations and continue to influence the field of economics to this day. His literary style combines concise argumentation with rigorous empirical observation, a style that positioned his writing at the intersection of the emerging social sciences and moral philosophy of the Enlightenment era.
