<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In this accessible book, Gavin Kennedy takes a fresh look at Adam Smith's moral philosophy and its links to his political economy and his lectures on jurisprudence. The book provides a new analysis of Wealth of Nations, and argues that Adam Smith's intellectual legacy was coopted in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by economists pursuing agendas that Smith did not advocate. It also provides a new explanation for the main mysteries about Smith's later life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'A fresh look at Smith's moral philosophy, its links to his political economy and his lectures on jurisprudence.' - The Scots Magazine</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>GAVIN KENNEDY is Professor and Director of Contracts at Edinburgh Business School, Herio-Watt University.
