The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith
It was written in 1776 so it will take a while to get used to the language, but is a very good read that gives an integrated description of the workings of a market economy. Its a very long book though...1200 pages or so.

it is three hundred years old.
the op wants a specific thing. what is that?
Doesnt matter how old it is...its still relevant free market economics and it works. Sure some of the job descriptions used as examples are a little outdated (like we dont have spinners, weavers, bleachers, ect anymore) but anyone with a little imagination can understand the basics of what the writer was saying.
Dont tell me your a Keynesian economist, Morganist. Keynes seems to work during its implementation, but the end game (or even mid game) destroys all economic progress with unnecessary beaurocracy.

morganist
no i am not a keynesian or any other form of economic school. i am a morganist.
i invent new tools to control the economy. for example i invent alternatives to control aggregate demand or heterodox banking models.
i don't think the level of stimulation is even relevant in a lot of cases. there is a lot more to economics than all of the economic schools of thought contribute to. the dividing factor of economic schools is the decision of whether to stimulate a reduction in demand to reach equilibrium in the labour market. this is a very limited view and yet most effort is expended on it.
all of the debates are time wasting and in the wrong area.
