Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, consisting of a series of interlinked essays, sets out to define the fundamental principles of political economy and establish the essential characteristics of true wealth. The author argues that the prevailing economic theories are based on inaccurate definitions and assumptions, and that the pursuit of wealth for its own sake has led to a society characterized by inequality and moral decline. Instead, he proposes a system of economics founded on the notion that wealth is not merely a material possession but rather a measure of life's fulfillment. This book offers a comprehensive and thought-provoking examination of the nature of wealth and its role in human 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.…
