This seminal work aims to create a new understanding of economics. Smith writes largely against the mercantile system that existed at the time of writing, but, along the way, gives a complicated but brilliant account of an economic system based in human nature and deeply rooted social dynamics. The text is characterized by fact-heavy digressions, tables, and appendices that blend hard research with broad generalities, demonstrating his commitment to give evidence for what seem like timeless observations about the nature of economics.
