An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

Adam Smith

Beschreibung

In "An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations," Adam Smith deftly explores the foundations of economic theory, presenting a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics of production, labor, and trade. Employing a luminous prose style that intertwines philosophical introspection with empirical observation, Smith navigates the complexities of a burgeoning capitalist society in the 18th century. His seminal work critiques mercantilism while advocating for free markets and the 'invisible hand' that guides economic self-interest towards collective benefit, solidifying the book's status as a cornerstone of classical economics. Adam Smith, often revered as the father of modern economics, was not only a philosopher but also a keen observer of human behavior, shaped by the Enlightenment ideals of his time. With a background in moral philosophy and an acute awareness of the socio-political currents of his era, Smith crafted this treatise to challenge prevailing economic doctrines and to illustrate the potential of individual initiative in fostering societal wealth. Readers seeking to comprehend the intricacies of economic principles and their historical evolution will find Smith's work indispensable. "Wealth of Nations" is not merely an economic manuscript; it is a profound discourse on human society that continues to resonate with contemporary debates on capitalism and ethics in economics.

Basic Principles of Curriculum...

Ralph W. Tyler, Peter S. Hlebowitsh

In 1949, a small book had a big impact on education. In just over one hundred pages, Ralph W. Tyler presented the concept that curriculum should be dynamic, a program under constant evaluation and revision. Curriculum had always been thought of as a static, set program, and in an era preoccupied with student testing, he offered the innovative idea that teachers and administrators should spend as much time evaluating their plans as they do assessing their students.

Since then, Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction has been a standard reference for anyone working with curriculum development. Although not a strict how-to guide, the book shows how educators can critically approach curriculum planning, studying progress and retooling when needed. Its four sections focus on setting objectives, selecting learning experiences, organizing instruction, and evaluating progress. Readers will come away with a firm understanding of how to formulate educational objectives and how to analyze and adjust their plans so that students meet the objectives. Tyler also explains that curriculum planning is a continuous, cyclical process, an instrument of education that needs to be fine-tuned.

This emphasis on thoughtful evaluation has kept Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction a relevant, trusted companion for over sixty years. And with school districts across the nation working feverishly to align their curriculum with Common Core standards, Tyler’s straightforward recommendations are sound and effective tools for educators working to create a curriculum that integrates national objectives with their students’ needs.
