"The Wealth of Nations" is a foundational text in economics that explores the nature of wealth, the role of labor, and the principles of a free market. Its enduring themes of trade, productivity, and the division of labor continue to resonate in today's discussions about economic systems and policies. Adam Smith's insights into how self-interest can lead to societal benefit highlight essential dynamics of capitalism that remain relevant as we navigate modern economic challenges. This book emphasizes the importance of understanding economic principles to foster prosperity and warns against the pitfalls of mercantilism and excessive regulation.
