# Book I Chapter III
## Excerpt
As it is the power of exchanging that gives occasion to the division of
labour, so the extent of this division must always be limited by the extent of
that power, or, in other words, by the extent of the market.
When the market is very small, no person can have any encouragement to dedicate
himself entirely to one employment, for want of the power to exchange all that
surplus part of the produce of his own labour, which is over and above his own
consumption, for such parts of the produce of other men's labour as he has
occasion for.
