This new edition of The Life of Adam Smith remains the only book to
give a full account of Smith's life whilst also placing his work
into the context of his life and times. Updated to include new
scholarship which has recently come to light, this full-scale
biography of Adam Smith examines the personality, career, and
social and intellectual circumstances of the Scottish moral
philosopher regarded as the founder of scientific economics, whose
legacy of thought - most notably about the free market and the role
of the state - concerns us all. Ian Simpson Ross draws on
correspondence, archival documents, the reports of contemporaries,
and the record of Smith's publications to fashion a lively account
of Adam Smith as a man of letters, moralist, historian, and critic,
as well as an economist. Supported with full scholarly apparatus
for students and academics, the book also offers 20 halftone
illustrations representing Smith and the world in which he lived.
