How wealth is really shaped in markets and why power matters
This nonfiction work explains how the prices we rely on are built from a tapestry of bargains among landowners, capitalists, and workers. It argues that the usual stories about fair distribution miss the core role of bargaining power, competition, and the hidden profits that come from size and organization.
The book surveys the mechanics of market-price formation, the rise of different kinds of rents, and the way surplus value emerges in many bargaining situations. It connects long‑run patterns in capital, labor, and land to everyday price and distribution outcomes, offering a unified view of how values are determined across uses and goods.

The analysis delves into the delicate balance between buyers and sellers, revealing the interplay of forces that shape the prices of goods and services.
