Adam Smith, With His Book 'The Wealth Of Nations', In The Late 18Th Century Was One Of The Founders Of Economics As A Discipline. His Central Theory Concentrates On The Value He Places On Self Interest, Arguing That It Is Not From The 'Benevolence' Of Others That We Receive What We Need But Out Of Their Regard For Their Own Self Interest. When Each Person Pursues His Or Her Own Selfinterest, Society As A Whole Is Led To A Condition Of Benefit For All. The Pure Experiments In This Approach, Laissezfaire Economics, Was Seen To Fail In The Industrial Misery Of Charles Dickens' England And In The United States In The Financial Scandals Of The Trusts And Cartels And The Economic Booms And Busts That Eventually Led To The Great Depression. Could Adam Smith Have Made A Mistake, A Mistake That Still Colours The Core Of Modern Life? This Book Argues That He Did. Dr Lux Argues That Selfinterest Does Not Lead To A Good Society, But Instead To Social Strife, Ecological Damage And Abuse Of Power. Another Principle Must Exist To Moderate Selfinterest And It Is One That Goes By Many Names. Dr Lux Argues That We Have Been Mislead By Economics Into Calling Selfishness And Greed A Good Thing. Instead This Book Argues That Good Only Comes Out Of Good. With The Adequate Recognition Of This Mistake We, As A Society, Will Be Able To Move Forward Into A Time Where Selfishness Can No Longer Hide Under A Protective Cover Of Economic Justification.
