Riches and Poverty An Intellectual History of Political Economy in Britain, 1750-1834

"Running through Donald Winch's latest (and excellent) book is a lament that, after Adam Smith, the study of economics became isolated from philosophy, theology, and the wider science of society....This is the starting point for 'Riches and Poverty', a detailed, subtle, and fine-grained exposition of theoretical economic controversy during the period of the so-called Industrial Revolution....'Riches and Poverty' is a powerful, innovative, and magisterial survey. Large swaths of it are virtually definitive."Winch, Donald is the author of 'Riches and Poverty An Intellectual History of Political Economy in Britain, 1750-1834', published 0007 under ISBN 9780521559201 and ISBN 0521559200.
