Who cooked Adam Smith's dinner?

Publisher: Dar Safsaf Number of pages: 333 pages Translator: Shirin Abdul Wahab The book before us presents a feminist introduction to questioning political economy, and the author — who has won prestigious awards for this work — explores the unpaid work of women at home in the economy, arguing that the value produced through this work has been deliberately neglected by economists. Adam Smith, the most famous economist and author of the renowned book "The Wealth of Nations," established one of the prevailing concepts in economic thought to this day, which is the concept of the "economic man." Through her question: who cooked Adam Smith’s dinner? she explains that if the butcher, the farmer, and others receive wages for their contributions to preparing a man's dinner, then his mother/wife does everything required in the final stage of preparing and serving the meal without compensation. A bold and enjoyable book, and considered one of the best books linking economics with feminist ideas.
