Narrator Michael Prichard is a Los Angeles-based actor who has recorded more than 350 audiobooks including novels by Clive Cussler and Tom Glancy. He recently was named one of Smart Money's Top Ten Golden Voices.
As one of the first titles in Atlantic Monthly Press' Books That Changed the World series, America's most provocative satirist, P. J. O'Rourke, reads Adam Smith's revolutionary The Wealth of Nations so you don't have to.
Think of it as a hardcover blog, in which O Rourke cites Smith s essential points, and riffs while preaching Smithian doctrine … this book is well worth reading. You ll pick up a few good lines, you ll see a primo stylist at work. And you ll see why Adam Smith is so often quoted but so rarely read.
