1728réf. 002792London: Tonson 1728. Un volume 205 cm di 7-477 pagine; è presente sia la numerazione araba che la segnatura A-Z8 Aa-Gg8 Hh7. Legatura coeva in piena pelle con decorazioni impresse. Difetti alla legatura cerniera anteriore fenduta usure agli angoli dei piatti piccole mancanze alle cuffie e qualche usura ala dorso. Minime tracce del tempo alle pagine interne qualche lieve brunitura o piccolissime fioriture una gora chiara alla pagina finale e alle seguenti due pagine bianche ma nel complesso buonissime condizioni interne. Titolo manoscritto in riquadro al dorso dove compare anche un 1 impresso e dorato di tomagione. Spesso infatti questa edizione si accompagnava con un secondo volume contenente lo sviluppo delle polemiche sollecitate dall'opera volume peraltro a sé stante e sovente di diverso stampatore. La prima edizione è del 1714 cui seguirono alcune ristampe. Nel 1723 apparve la 'seconda edizione' allargata. Altre aggiunte si ritrovano cinque anni dopo nella quinta edizione: nello stesso anno ne venne pubblicata un'edizione in due volumi. "Mandeville's central theme is that public benefits are the product of private vices and not of private virtues" New Palgrave. Una delle opere-chiave di tutta la storia del pensiero economico. Tonson
