Mandeville. The Fable of the Bees

Crude, but candid and full of insight, in particular the essay, An Enquiry into the Origin of Moral Virtue.

Essentially correct, though not great on the relationship between morality and religion.

Much undervalued.

And a good joke on J. S. Mill, in more ways than one.
