内容简介

Adam Smith's landmark treatise on the free market paved the way for modern capitalism, arguing that competition is the engine of a productive society, and that self-interest will eventually come to enrich the whole community, as if by an `invisible hand'.

Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.

《看不见的手》内容简介：亚当·斯密作为一个伟大的经济学家，是资产阶级古典政治经济学的开创者。他在自己的思想体系中用“看不见的手”来比喻看不见的引导人类行为的人性本能。在良好的人类社会制度基础上，那只“看不见的手”能够自发地产生出良好的社会规范和伦理秩序。但在一般的学术研究中，“看不见的手”这一比喻已经变成人们谈起具有神奇作用的市场价格体系、经济运作机制甚至资本主义的道德基础时的常用语，自由市场经济理念的支持者也把它看作最重要的原则和信条。《看不见的手》针对学术界围绕“看不见的手”展开的讨论进行梳理，并以亚当·斯密的《国富论》和《道德情操论》中的相关论述为基础对“看不见的手”进行解读。
