It is increasingly being recognised as a foundational text in moral philosophy and in Adam Smith's oeuvre more generally. This is the first companion to guide readers through \u003ci\u003eTMS\u003c\/i\u003e and uncover what Smith thinks, why he thinks it, why he might be wrong to think it! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile Adam Smith is best known for a \u003ci\u003eWealth of Nations\u003c\/i\u003e there is a history of seriously misinterpreting this text as an unnuanced celebration of unfettered capitalism. \u003ci\u003eThe Theory of Moral Sentiments\u003c\/i\u003e is a kind of corrective to these naïve readings. As such, any serious consideration of Adam Smith's work should also include \u003ci\u003eTMS\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJohn McHugh's guide provides detailed analysis of \u003ci\u003eTMS \u003c\/i\u003ewhile never losing sight of the text in the context of Smith's writings and world view more generally. It offers both an introduction to the importance and insight of \u003ci\u003eTMS \u003c\/i\u003ewhile also functioning as a great way in to Adam Smith as a philosopher.\n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 384\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 19, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42156727926919,"sku":"9781350268098","price":104.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/d0674903b3470f9b1329d6cc5ce45a21.webp?v=1733245854","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/adam-smiths-the-theory-of-moral-sentiments-a-critical-commentary-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
