Publisher's Synopsis
An Enquiry into the Extent and Stability of National Resources is a pioneering work of political economy by the Scottish theologian and social reformer Thomas Chalmers. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of history, economics, and sociology, Chalmers argues that the health and prosperity of nations is rooted in the judicious management of their natural resources, and that the key to a nation's stability and progress lies in the cultivation of a strong and self-reliant citizenry. This book remains a timeless and thought-provoking analysis of the relationship between natural resources, social stability, and economic development.
