About this title

Synopsis

A Complete Analysis, Or Abridgment, Of Dr. Adam Smith's Inquiry Into The Nature And Causes Of The Wealth Of Nations by Adam Smith. This edition features Jeremiah Joyce's abridgment of Adam Smith's classic work, originally published in 1804, complete with an introduction and a structured outline of the material. The text condenses Smith's Wealth of Nations into a comprehensive survey designed as an educational resource for liberal education. Joyce's compilation retains the essential arguments regarding production, division of labor, capital accumulation, the nature of money, and the theory of value, prices, wages, rent, and profits, while offering narrative guidance to enhance readers' understanding of Smith's analysis. It encompasses the first two books and related sections of Smith’s inquiry, presenting them within a navigable framework that highlights the development of political economy, the significance of commerce and agriculture, and the progression of economic ideas, making it accessible to both students and general readers.
