The Return Of Adam Smith

By Jr. George S. Montgomery

Book Overview

The Return of Adam Smith by George S. Montgomery Jr. is a non-fiction book that explores the ideas and philosophy of Adam Smith, a Scottish economist and philosopher who is widely regarded as the father of modern economics. The book examines Smith's seminal work, The Wealth of Nations, and its impact on the development of capitalism and free-market economics.Montgomery argues that Smith's ideas are more relevant today than ever before, and that they offer a powerful framework for understanding and addressing the economic and social challenges of the 21st century. He explores the key concepts of Smith's philosophy, including the invisible hand, self-interest, and the division of labor, and shows how they have shaped our modern economic system.The book also delves into Smith's lesser-known works, such as The Theory of Moral Sentiments, and shows how they provide a moral and ethical foundation for his economic theories. Montgomery draws on a wide range of sources, including Smith's own writings, contemporary economic theory, and real-world examples, to make a compelling case for the enduring relevance of Adam Smith's ideas.Overall, The Return of Adam Smith is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a fresh perspective on one of the most influential thinkers in modern history. It will appeal to anyone interested in economics, philosophy, or the intersection of the two.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
