Description
1790 Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith Economics Industrial Revolution Banking
Adam Smith's work is the first major expression of organized study of social wealth. "'The Wealth of Nations' is not a system, but as a provisional analysis it is completely convincing. The certainty of its criticism and its grasp of human nature have made it the first and greatest classic of modern economic thought." (PMM 221).
This is an original edition of this important 'revolutionary' translation of Smith's ‘The Wealth of Nations,’ conducted by the poet and enlightened political writer Jean-Antoine Roucher (1745-1794), guillotined by Robespierre. As is very well established, "the volume containing Condorcet's notes was probably never published" [Goldsmith 14106].
