Więcej o książce
Exploring the multifaceted concept of interest in the British eighteenth century, this book delves into its influence on finance, economics, politics, psychology, and aesthetics. It highlights how a burgeoning national debt birthed a new class of rentiers and how the discipline of economics positioned self-interest as a fundamental human trait. Additionally, it examines the innovative marketing of books as "interesting." Through witty puns and structural analogies, the author illustrates the connections that writers forged across various aspects of life during this transformative era.
