Adam Smith in His Time and Ours
Author: Jerry Z. Muller
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 9780691001616
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Counter to the popular impression that Adam Smith was a champion of selfishness and greed, Jerry Muller shows that the Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations maintained that markets served to promote the well-being of the populace and that government must intervene to counteract the negative effects of the pursuit of self-interest. Smith's analysis went beyond economics to embrace a larger "civilizing project" designed to create a more decent society.
