AUTHOR
SUMMARY
It used to be that everyone read the "notorious" Bernard Mandeville (1670-1733). He was a great satirist and came to have a profound impact on economics, ethics, and social philosophy. The Fable of the Bees begins with a poem and continues with a number of essays and dialogues. It is all tied together by the startling and original idea that "private vices" (self-interest) lead to "publick benefits" (the development and operation of society).Mandeville, Bernard is the author of 'Fable of the Bees Or Private Vices, Publick Benefits' with ISBN 9780865970755 and ISBN 0865970750.
