“Nobody ever saw a dog make a fair and deliberate exchange of one bone for another with another dog.”

― Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations

 

A rare, early edition of the famous “Wealth of Nations” by Adam Smith. “Wealth of Nations” was one of the world’s first collected descriptions of what builds a nations’ economy, wealth, and capitalism. Smith begins this landmark work by stating that the source of a nation’s wealth comes from the labor of the people. Throughout the rest of the work, Smith shows how productivity and financial exchanges are the root of a working economy.
