   Discussed

   The Wealth of Nations

   Adam Smith · Discussed · 1 episode

   The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith is a foundational 1776 text in classical economics by the Scottish thinker widely seen as the father of modern economics, exploring the mechanics of free markets, national productivity, and division of labor.
