This is the first biography of entrepreneur and economist Richard
Cantillon whose major work, Essai sur la Nature du Commerce en
General (1755), remains one of the most important works on
economics written in the 18th century. Using much previously
unpublished manuscript material, this study explains the nature of
Europe's first stock exchange boom, the South Sea Bubble, and the
Mississippi System, and shows how Cantillon's theorizing as an
economist interacted with his activities as a banker-entrepreneur
to make him one of Europe's wealthiest men in this period of
frenetic stock exchange activity.
