The Theory of Moral Sentiments (Illustrated)

In his first major work, economist Adam Smith concentrates on ethics and charity. The Theory of Moral Sentiments divides moral philosophy into four parts: Ethics and Virtue; Private rights and Natural liberty; Familial rights (called Economics); and State and Individual rights (called Politics). Smith establishes the intellectual framework for all of his later work, including The Wealth of Nations.

This new digital edition of The Theory of Moral Sentiments includes an image gallery showcasing important figures of the Scottish Enlightenment.
