The publication of The Wealth of Nations in 1776 coincided with America's Declaration of Independence, and with this landmark treatise on political economy, Scottish economist and philosopher Adam Smith (1723-90) paved the way for modern capitalism, arguing that a truly free market - fired by competition yet guided as if by an "invisible hand" to ensure justice and equality - was the engine of a fair and productive society. This edition features an introduction by John Kenneth Galbraith, numerous color illustrations, and maps. Quarto, three volumes. Full light brown cloth bindings, with decorative gilt and dark brown stamping. A near fine set, housed in the publisher's slipcase. Near fine.
