Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Invisible Hand: A Tale is a novel published in 1815 by Cadell and Davies. The story revolves around the life of a young man named Edward, who is orphaned at a young age and forced to make his own way in the world. He is taken in by a wealthy merchant, Mr. Falkland, who becomes his mentor and teaches him the ways of business. As Edward rises through the ranks of the business world, he becomes more and more successful, but he also becomes increasingly ruthless and obsessed with money. He begins to neglect his personal relationships and becomes isolated from those around him. The novel explores themes of ambition, greed, and the corrupting influence of power. It also examines the role of capitalism in society and the idea of the ""invisible hand"" that guides the market. Overall, The Invisible Hand: A Tale is a thought-provoking and insightful novel that offers a critical perspective on the world of business and finance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
