The Wealth of Nations, Books IV-V (Penguin Classics)

The classic economic treatise that inspired Thomas Pikettyâ€™s Capital in the Twenty-First Century

With this landmark treatise on political economy, Adam Smith paved the way for modern capitalism, arguing that a truly free market â€“ fired by competition yet guided as if by an â€˜invisible handâ€™ to ensure justice and equalityÂ â€“ was the engine of a fair and productive society. In Books IV-V, Smith offers his considered response to the French Physiocrats and assesses the nature of the mercantile system.

The Wealth of Nations (Books I-III) are also published in Penguin Classics.
