Anyone know exactly what the deal is with this book? I guess it has three sections to it, three volumes. I'd just like one copy of it, all together if possible.

Any ideas?

I thought the original was like 13 pages. His followups that explain the original were progressively larger if I remember correctly.

No, "Das Kapital" is a huge book. The 13 pages is probably the "Communistic Manifest".

Read Smith's Wealth of Nations first (another monster of a book but very well done) and then move on. Try half.com or one of those book search sites for a copy.


Cheers ! :)

edit:

I see you've covered your bases.

Smith's a good writer.

So there are three volumes to this book? Is there any one version (by a publisher) that has all three volumes in it?
