This book analyses the work of Boisguilbert, in the establishment and development of liberal economics. From here the author explores the theoretical foundations of 'laissez-faire'.

This is the first full length study of Boisguilbert's work to appear in English. It contains an extended discussion of the context in which Boisguilbert worked, as well as a detailed analysis of his life and work.
