| Summary |
Today Adam Smith, author of 'The Wealth of Nations', is associated with the promotion of self-interest and a defence of greed. Yet if Smith is actually read this is more a caricature than a faithful portrait. Berry offers a balanced and nuanced view of this seminal thinker, set against contemporary European history, politics and philosophy |
