This book provides a fascinating look into the life of Anne-Robert-Jacques Turgot, one of France's most influential comptroller generals. Written by noted economists and philosophers, John Adams and Jean-Antoine-Nicolas de Caritat Condorcet, the book examines Turgot's life during the critical years of 1774 to 1777, a period of significant political upheaval and economic transformation in France. Drawing from a variety of sources, the authors provide a vivid portrait of Turgot's character and influence, as well as his lasting contributions to the field of economics.
