The origin of the distinction of ranks

More about the book

More clearly than Smith and Ferguson, Millar articulated the principle that allowed his era to understand the natural history of civil society as a systematic connection: humanity is inherently inclined to improve its living conditions; the uniformity of its needs, along with the equality of abilities to satisfy those needs, has led to a remarkable consistency in the stages of social development.
