Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on Political Economy, Vol. 1 of 3
N 0 work on Political Economy has appeared in Europe, since the publication of Dr. Adam Smith's profound and ori ginal Inquiry into the nature and causes of the Wealth of Nations, that has attracted more general attention, and re ceived more distinguished marks of approbation from compe tent judges, than the present Treatise Of M. Say. The first edition of this book was printed in Paris in the year 1803; and, subsequently, it has passed through four large editions, that have received various corrections and improvements from the author. Translations of it have, also, been made into the German, Spanish, Italian, and other languages; and it has been adopted as a text-book in all the Universities of the continent Of Europe in which this essential, but hitherto neglected, branch of liberal education is now taught. The former American edition of this translation has, also, been introduced into several of the most respectable Of our own seminaries Of learning.
