The Wealth Of Nations
Most informative and interesting book

Worth for a collection.
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 division and inflation
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.

Not for everyone
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.

Handle With Care , The Book contains sensible contents in sensitive papers!
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

compasses his ideas of wealth in nations.
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”

Words of a logical God!
Every idea is just as relevant in today's time as it was in the 18th century. Must read for entrepreneurs! P.S. Just make sure that you don't just consume his ideas and concepts, but also put in your own thoughts while reading it. Form linkages with modern financial systems, enterprises, economies and technologies.Don't worry about the thickness of the book since it is very interesting and easy to understand and you'll finish it like you binge watch web series.
