Adam Smith's masterpiece, first published in 1776, is the foundation of modern
economic thought and remains the single most important account of the rise of,
and the principles behind, modern capitalism. Written in clear and incisive
prose, The Wealth of Nations articulates the concepts indispensable to an
understanding of contemporary society; and Robert Reich's Introduction both
clarifies Smith's analyses and illuminates his overall relevance to the world in
which we live. As Reich writes, "Smith's mind ranged over issues as fresh and
topical today as they were in the late eighteenth century-jobs, wages, politics,
government, trade, education, business, and ethics."
Introduction by Robert Reich • Commentary by R. H. Campbell and A. S. Skinner
