An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith

3.0

I'm glad I read it, and I'm glad it's over. Adam Smith's pins and his descriptions of banking, mercantile commerce and taxation helped me understand a lot about economics. His ideas are transparently out of date though. The idea that an individual choosing an occupation will make the best choice for themselves and also for their society can in no way be true.
