The Essential Principles of the Wealth of Nations (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book contests the long-held perception that manufacturing increases national wealth. The author meticulously argues that manufacturing, while essential for societal functioning, only transforms pre-existing value from one form to another, rather than creating new value. It is only agriculture, the author claims, that yields a surplus beyond the cost of production, which then becomes the source of wealth for all other sectors of society. This book aligns with the ideas of the French Economists and challenges the views of Adam Smith, who believed that both agriculture and manufacturing are productive. It presents a new way of thinking about the origins of wealth and the role of different economic activities in society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332975914_0
