    On the Wealth of Nations PJ O'Rourke, one of America's most provocative satirists, has put his trademark wit to use with his interpretation of Adam Smith's revolutionary The Wealth of Nations. Written in 1776 Smith's work was recognized as being the fundamental work of economics but also extensively long - over 900 pages. O'Rourke instead offers his own insightful examination and explains "why what seems obvious now was once revolutionary, and why the pursuit of self-interest is so important."
