Author: Katrine Marçal Narrator: Laura Jennings Format: mp3 Length: 6 hrs and 17 mins Release date: 01-14-20 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 29 ratings Genres: Women Publisher's Summary: How do you get your dinner? That is the basic question of economics. When economist and philosopher Adam Smith proclaimed that all our actions were motivated by self-interest, he used the example of the baker and the butcher as he laid the foundations for the “economic man”. He argued that the baker and butcher didn't give bread and meat out of the goodness of their hearts. It's an ironic point of view coming from a bachelor who lived with his mother for most of his life - a woman who cooked his dinner every night.
