Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Philosophy of Trade: Or Outlines of a Theory of Profits and Prices, Including an Examination of the Principles Which Determine the Relative Value of Corn, Labour, and Currency
The disorders incident to trade - a subject more nearly allied to politics - would require a separate and a larger volume. This comes not within the compass of my present design; and besides, it would be idle to attempt a treatise on those disturbances and convulsions to which commerce is occasionally liable, until I had sub mitted to public judgment my views (which are in some respects peculiar) of the laws which de termine value, and govern the rise and fall of profits and of prices.
