		Quesnay believed that only the agricultural sector could produce a surplus that could then be used to produce more the next year and, therefore, help growth.
		Quesnay advocated reforming these laws by consolidating and reducing taxes, getting rid of tolls and other regulations that prevented trade within France, and generally freeing the economy from the government's stifling controls.
		That Quesnay had such a seminal influence on economics is all the more surprising in light of the fact that he served under Louis XV in Versailles, not as an economist, but as a medical doctor.

		The Due de Sully - a century earlier than Quesnay - was the chief minister of Henri IV, and was put in charge of the finances of France.
		Quesnay's "Economic Table" is an undeservedly forgotten work; even more forgotten is Sully's "Royal Economies" (the title of his extensive memoirs) - which is a pity, for they would do much to explain the brief peace and prosperity of his nation in an age of disorders.

	The Contrasting Theories of Industrialization of Francois Quesnay and Adam Smith
		Francois Quesnay regarded industry as "sterile," and argued that proindustrial government policies reduced population and undermined government finances, while Adam Smith saw immense benefits in the div ision of labor that could only be exploited in industry.
		Their theories are explained from the original texts, where both advocated that the balance between agriculture and industry should be left to market forces: Quesnay did not support agricultural protection, while Smith did not support infant industry protection.
		Quesnay's argument that it undermines government finances to tax a surplus-yielding agriculture in order to subsidize surplus-absorbing industries is one that many developing countries that are growing disappointingly slowly could profit from.

		Only the Farmer and the Artisan produce goods - the first produces grain, the second produces crafts.
		Following Quesnay, we have no prices in this system: a "unit" of grain and a "unit" of craft sells for a single livre (old unit of cash) on the market place.

		He brought this refreshing skill repeatedly to economics, which was in the process of becoming increasingly mathematical during his academic years.
		François Quesnay, French, self-educated physician in the Court of Louis XV, elaborated on the analogy between the flowing circulation of blood in the human body and the flow of money as it exchanges for economic services and goods in the producing and consuming population.
		His graphical depiction of this in a "Tableau Economique" helped economists explain and keep track of the accounting of goods and services, which aided economists in explaining the flaws of the mercantilists' claims that countries that exported and accumulated gold benefited themselves.
