Adam Smith
Adam Smith (1723-1790) was a Scottish economist, philosopher, and author, widely known as the father of modern economics. His seminal work, 'The Wealth of Nations' (1776), laid the foundations for classical economics and introduced key concepts such as the division of labor, free markets, and the 'invisible hand' that guides supply and demand. Smith's ideas emphasized the importance of self-interest and competition in fostering economic growth and prosperity. His contributions have had a lasting impact on economic theory and policy, influencing generations of economists and shaping the field of economics as we know it today.
