Dear ,

Bernard Mandeville saw that, much like a bee hive, orderly social structures like markets and law were developed out of individual action—and not just action we would typically deem virtuous.

The Fable of the Bees, the acclaimed work where Mandeville introduces these ideas, was a groundbreaking development in capitalist thought. Starting with a poem and continuing with several essays and dialogues, the book is tied together by the original and penetrating idea that “private vices,” or self-interest, lead to “publick benefits,” or the development and operation of society.

We believe this text to be vital in the study and discussion of markets and culture. As such, we offer The Fable of the Bees at 50% off through the end of August when you use promo code “BEE50” at checkout.
