Description
Smith's investigation into the mechanics of wealth and labor—division of labor, market exchange, self-interest—became the founding text of modern economics while maintaining an almost anthropological curiosity about how humans organize production. His real argument about human nature is far more nuanced than the libertarian mythology that claims him.
