À propos de l'auteur

Adam Smith was a Scottish economist, philosopher, and author, widely recognized as the father of modern economics. His seminal work, "The Wealth of Nations," published in 1776, laid the foundations for classical economics and introduced concepts such as the division of labor and the invisible hand, which remain influential in economic theory today. Smith's ideas emphasized the importance of free markets and trade, advocating that individual self-interest leads to societal benefits when guided by competition and regulation.
