This book is a textual criticism of modern ideas about the work of Adam Smith that offers a new perspective on many of his famous contributions to economic thought.

Gavin Kennedy believes that Smith’s name and legacy were often appropriated or made into myths in the 19th and 20th centuries, with many misconceptions persisting today. Offering new analysis of works on rhetoric, moral sentiments, jurisprudence, the invisible hand, The Wealth of Nations, and Smith’s very private views on religion, the book gives a new perspective on this important canonical thinkerAn Authentic Account of Adam Smith By: Gavin Kennedy Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan Print ISBN: 9783319638010, 3319638017 other ISBNs: 9783319638027, 3319638025 Copyright year: 2017 SKU: 9783319638027 ?
