Wealth of Nations – Adam Smith (Wordsworth Classics)
"The foundation of modern economics — a book that changed the world."
Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith is one of the most influential books ever written — the cornerstone of classical economics and a timeless masterpiece of political and economic thought. Published in this beautiful Wordsworth Classics of World Literature edition, it belongs on every serious reader’s shelf.
First published in 1776, this landmark work introduced the concept of the free market, the division of labour, and the “invisible hand” that guides economies. Adam Smith’s insights remain as relevant today as they were over two centuries ago, shaping the economic policies of nations and the thinking of leaders, entrepreneurs, and scholars worldwide. Whether you’re studying economics, business, or simply want to understand how the modern world was built, this is essential reading.
