Adam Smith is best known for his Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, but his other great work, The Theory of Moral Sentiments, is as deserving of serious study. In this volume, scholars of economics, philosophy, and political science take up questions that range throughout Smith's work, seeking to find connections between his moral theory and political economy.
