Adam Smith is best known for The Wealth of Nations, yet his understanding of economics was inseparable from his study of human behaviour, morality and virtue. Lessons from the Theory of Moral Sentiments brings together key passages from Smith’s moral and economic writings, highlighting his ideas on sympathy, prudence, justice, self-command, free markets, government and the foundations of civil society. Selected and introduced by Richard Morgan AM, this volume shows how Smith’s insights into human nature shaped his economic thought and remain relevant to modern debates about prosperity, responsibility, markets and the moral framework necessary for a flourishing society.
