Simple Truths: The English Version of a Small Treatise on Political Economy, for the Information of Chinamen is a book written by Christopher Thomas Gardner in 1898. The book is a simplified version of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations and aims to explain the principles of political economy to the Chinese people. The book covers topics such as the division of labor, the importance of free trade, and the role of government in the economy. The author uses simple language and examples to make the concepts easy to understand for the intended audience. The book was written during a time when China was undergoing significant political and economic changes, and Gardner hoped that his work would help the Chinese people navigate these changes. Overall, Simple Truths is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of political economy and the role of Western ideas in shaping Chinese economic thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
