The Wealth of Nations

Let me start with all the history this book has to offer from the birth to the death of Adam Smith's mortals. And the legacy which ignited the capitalism from monarchy to democractic system which enabled the humans to follow a set of four philosophy to strive and prove the 7 senses of evolved animals. As it's said even though we reach the high degree of civilization, this would be the foundation. As a beginner such as myself, I will tell you the privileged amusement while reading the book, it's been more than a month since started it and without any shame let me tell you I haven't even finished 10% of the book. The pros are endless diminishing all the cons. A good quality of the paper, perfect packaging while delivery and an astonishing choice of vocabulary has made me go through the same page more than once just to realise what Mr. Smith is trying to tell. It will just give you a trip back to the history and telling us how the future will be in a good old English language. Allowing us to experience every moment. Please go for this book, don't worry if you are not able to follow the sentences sometimes(I happened to go through) but overall it will make you understand how the nations work.

The Wealth of Nations is a big book. That is the first thing you should know about it because it is more than a 1000 pages long. But Adam Smith is known as the father of economy and this book encompasses his ideas of wealth in nations. Therefore, for anyone who has interest in economy or is studying commerce, needs to take a keen interest in this book. The terminology of the book is easy enough but still a layman who known nothing about economy might have some trouble understanding this book. The book is highly technical and goes on and on. But the important thing about it is that it is really informative. Nowhere while reading this book would you think that a part was unnecessarily added. The book may be a big one but it is a worthwhile read for someone who has interest in this field. The book delves deep into the concepts of division of labour, rise of the cities and their fall after the Roman empire etc. It is probably one of the best and most useful non-fiction book I have ever read. In the end, just this quote, “Man is an animal that makes bargains”

Received in new condition, packed well no damage, Unused smell of a new book and feel of turning each page is definitely a authentic experience and the paper are so thin that if you use any harsh highlighter it may damage the papers and leave marks on the next page so carefully highlight with a pencil shades or softbrush markers. Overall this a really nice book and let me go back and read ! Have a good one Comrades 🤝 Regards, -Comrade JBR

EDIT: The binding of the book is average. This is a good book for people who are interested in the writings of Adam Smith. Not recommended for a layman or casual readers. The book is also very long, around 1,200 pages. Before reading the book, always check each and every page for any missing pages or washed out print. It will take time but it will be worth it cause you don't want to know that some of the pages are missing or not readable after the return period is over. In my case, I got one with washed out print that was barely readable. I called for a replacement and got the item replaced next day. Very good service, but I request sellers to check items before sending.

The paper quality is decent and the book is compact but it is quite heavy which some readers might not like. The paper is white therefore translucent and text from the other sife of the page becomes visible. But hey, for ₹249 it's fantastic. Hats off to Fingerprint! publishers for giving us classical books at such a good price.

I don't know but I heard this book is so good. But It is more difficult to read the book. And I am also new to economics which is so hard to grasp some words. Major issue is that pages are not printed properly. Otherwise for the price, you can go for it.

The book compares inflation with respect to sugar and other commodities, what was the earlier price and how there has been an increase in the prices. It speaks about the division of labour in the society and how there is an increase in costs/. Overall a general read though one can read it to decipher 17th century cryptography.

Print is WAY to small without using a magnifier.

As word-heavy as it is thick, this book is an interesting case study of the wealth of nations of the time it was written. There are many concepts in this book which are still applicable to this day, and they explain a lot about how society was formed and why it works the way it does (in terms of wealth, labour and economies of different nations). I got this book a few weeks ago, and I am still reading through it. As long as you keep in mind the times in which it was written, I would say it is an excellent book so far.

This is the outline of the masterpiece by D. Smith. Needles to say,it's a classic of economics and an excellent summary of the work . It covers all the main points of each part in a concise and clear manner in 100 pages. I was tempted to send Matteo Renzi a copy so he could start solving the problems of the Italian economy, but I think he likes Keynes better.

El libro no está completo y en ningún momento lo especifican. No sé si mi ejemplar fue el único, pero llegó perforado de la cubierta, y aunado a esto el libro no es legible, pues los dos últimos renglones en cada una de las páginas no están impresos.

Heavy duty...
