The book explores the transition from mercantilism to a free market economy, emphasizing the importance of the "invisible hand" in promoting economic growth. Adam Smith argues that the division of labor fosters interdependence among individuals, leading to a system where personal profit motives ultimately benefit society as a whole. By illustrating how specialized trades create dependencies, the work highlights the potential for increased wealth through mutual exchange and the production of goods and services that individuals cannot make on their own.
