An excellent book, which does exactly what a title in this series should do: namely, provide a serious yet accessible point of entry for students and non-specialist readers, while also giving more advanced specialists much to think about. It will also be the first book I recommend to graduate students who want an overview of the current state-of-play in the Smith literature. - Ryan Hanley, Boston College, USA An excellent introduction and guide to the basic concepts, ideas, and arguments of Smith's works. Fleischacker distils the essence of Smith's ideas with unmatched philosophical rigor and an eye toward contemporary interpretive debates. Even Smith experts can learn much from reading this volume. - Glory M. Liu, Harvard University, USA
