David S. Landes
The Wealth and Poverty of Nations: Why Some Are So Rich and Some So Poor

1999 y.
Publisher: W. W. Norton &, Company, Inc.
Description: The Wealth and Poverty of Nations is David S.Landes`s acclaimed, best-selling exploration of one of the most contentious and hotly debated questions of our time: Why do some nations achieve economic success while others remain mired in poverty? The answer, as Landes definitively illustrates, is a complex interplay of cultural mores and historical circumstance. Rich with anecdotal evidence, piercing analysis, and a truly astonishing range of erudition, The Wealth and Poverty of Nations is a `picture of enormous sweep and brilliant insight` (Kenneth Arrow) as well as one of the most audaciously ambitious works of history in decades.

Alessandro Roncaglia
The Wealth of Ideas: A History of Economic Thought

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Wealth of Ideas traces the history of economic thought, from its prehistory (the Bible, Classical antiquity) to the present day. In this eloquently written, scientifically rigorous and well documented book, chapters on William Petty, Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Karl Marx, William Stanley Jevons, Carl Menger, LA©on Walras, Alfred Marshall, John Maynard Keynes, Joseph Schumpeter and Piero Sraffa alternate with chapters on other important figures and on debates of the period. Economic thought is seen as developing between two opposite poles: a subjective one, based on the ideas of scarcity and utility, and an objective one based on the notions of physical costs and surplus. Professor Roncaglia focuses on the different views of the economy and society and on their evolution over time and critically evaluates the foundations of the scarcity-utility approach in comparison with the Classical/Keynesian approach.

Adam Smith, Andrew Skinner
The Wealth of Nations Books I-III

1999 y.
Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd.
Description: ` It is not from the benevolence of the butcher the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner but from their regard to their own interest t` With this landmark treatise on political economy, Adam Smith paved the way for modern capitalism, arguing that a truly free market - fired by competition yet guided as if by an `invisible hand` to ensure justice and equality - was the engine of a fair and productive society. Books l-lll of The Wealth of Nations examine the `division of labour` as the key to economic growth, by ensuring the interdependence of individuals within society. They also cover the origins of money and the importance of wages, profit, rent and stocks. Smith`s work laid the foundations of economic theory in general and `classical` economics in particular, but the real sophistication of his analysis derives from the fact that it also encompasses a combination of ethics, philosophy and history to create a vast panorama of society.

Adam Smith, Andrew S. Skinner
The Wealth of Nations, Books IV-V (Penguin Classics)

2000 y.
Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd.
Description: It is in Books IV and V of The Wealth of Nations that Adam Smith offers his considered response to the French Physiocrats, perhaps the first great school of economic theorists, and assesses the nature of the mercantile system, particularly the colonial relationship with America, whose achievements could have been even more spectacular if conditions of free trade and economic union had existed. Even on the eve of the Declaration of Independence, Smith famously predicted that America `will be one ofthe foremost nations of the world.` It is also here that he develops the case for a limited state role in economic planning, notably to combat market failure and induce efficiency in areas such as education, public works, justice, and defense. His pioneering analysis still provides many subtle and penetrating insights into one of today`s most vital and controversial policy debates.

The Wealth of Nature: Environmental History and the Ecological Imagination

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Hailed as `one of the most eminent environmental historians of the West` by Alan Brinkley in The New York Times Book Review, Donald Worster has been a leader in reshaping the study of American history. Winner of the prestigious Bancroft Prize for his book Dust Bowl, Worster has helped bring humanity`s interaction with nature to the forefront of historical thinking. Now, in The Wealth of Nature, he offers a series of thoughtful, eloquent essays which lay out his views on environmental history, tying the study of the past to today`s agenda for change. The Wealth of Nature captures the fruit of what Worster calls `my own intellectual turning to the land.` History, he writes, represents a dialogue between humanity and nature--though it is usually reported as if it were simple dictation. Worster takes as his point of departure the approach expressed early on by Aldo Leopold, who stresses the importance of nature in determining human history, Leopold pointed out that the spread of… [detailed...]

Robert Nadeau
The Wealth of Nature

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Virtually all of the large-scale damage to the global environment is caused by global economic activities, and the vast majority of economic planners in both business and government have been trained in neoclassical economic theory. In this hardhitting book, Robert Nadeau first demonstrates that the central legitimating construct in neoclassical economics, Adam Smith`s invisible hand, is a product of eighteenth century Deism and that Smith`s understanding of the `natural laws of economics` is based on metaphysical assumptions. Nadeau then shows that the architects of neoclassical economics, all of whom were trained as engineers, incorporated Smith`s assumptions about the lawful dynamics of market systems into a mathematical formalismborrowed wholesale from a soon-to-be outmoded mid-nineteenth century physics. Absurdly, these now-famous economists substituted economic variables for the physical variables in the equations of this physics, and this became the basis… [detailed...]

The Wealth of Networks: How Social Production Transforms Markets and Freedom

2007 y.
Publisher: Yale University Press
Description: With the radical changes in information production that the Internet has introduced, we stand at an important moment of transition, says Yochai Benkler in this thought-provoking book. The phenomenon he describes as social production is reshaping markets, while at the same time offering new opportunities to enhance individual freedom, cultural diversity, political discourse, and justice. But these results are by no means inevitable: a systematic campaign to protect the entrenched industrial information economy of the last century threatens the promise of today`s emerging networked information environment. In this comprehensive social theory of the Internet and the networked information economy, Benkler describes how patterns of information, knowledge, and cultural production are changing - and shows that the way information and knowledge are made available can either limit or enlarge the ways people can create and express themselves. He describes the range of legal and policy… [detailed...]

The Wealth of the World and the Poverty of Nations

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The present situation, in which poor nations are becoming richer and rich nations poorer, gives credence to the idea that the former phenomenon is responsible for the latter. The great fear of many in the West is that trade with India, China, or the former Soviet Union will cause a collapse of the welfare state and of society`s well-being. `Globalization` has become a loaded term. Should we believe, literally, that trade with poor nations can be blamed for our `impoverishment`? In this book,Daniel Cohen claims that there is practically no foundation for such an alarmist position. We need to reverse the commonly held view that globalization has caused today`s insecure labor market. On the contrary, Cohen argues, our own propensity for transforming the nature of work has created a niche for globalization and given it an ominous dimension, causing some to reject it. Pursuing this erroneous line of thought will place the battle for social welfare `on the sidelines` when it… [detailed...]

Description: In compelling, often stunning black-and-white photographs, The Weather and a Place to Live portrays the manmade landscape of the western United States. Here we come face to face with the surreal intersection of the American appetite for suburban development and the resistant, rolling, arid country of the desert West. Steven B. Smith’s extraordinary photographs take us into the contemporary reality of sprawling suburbs reconfiguring what was once vast, unpopulated territory. With arresting concision and an unblinking eye, Smith shows how a new frontier is being won, and suggests too how it may be lost in its very emergence. Since the early 1990s Smith has been making large-format photographs in California, Utah, Nevada, and Colorado. Based on this body of work, he was chosen as winner of the biennial Center for Documentary Studies/Honickman First Book Prize in Photography. The power of these photographs lies in part in Smith’s unusual knowledge of the places… [detailed...]
