Eric Schliesser’s Adam Smith is the
product of two decades’ reflection
by the author on the great Scottish
Enlightenment. Unique among treatments
of Adam Smith, Schliesser’s book treats
him as a systematic philosopher. Smith
was a giant of the Scottish Enlightenment
with polymath interests; Schliesser thus
explores Smith’s economics and ethics
in light of his other commitments on
the nature of knowledge, the theory of
emotions, the theory of mind, his account
of language, the nature of causation, and
his views on methodology. He places
Smith’s ideas in the context of a host
of other philosophers, especially Hume,
Rousseau, and Newton; and he draws on
the reception of Smith’s ideas by Sophie
de Grouchy, Mary Wollstonecraft, and
other philosophers and economists to
sketch the elements of, and the detailed
connections within, Smith’s system.
Adam Smith traces the outlines of Smith’s
intellectual system and situates it in the
context of his highly developed views on
the norms that govern responsible speech.
In particular, the book articulates Smith s
concerns about the impact of his public
policy recommendations, especially on
the least powerful in society. In so doing,
Schliesser offers new interpretations
of Smith’s views on the invisible hand,
the Wealth of Nations, his treatment
of virtue, the nature of freedom, the
individual’s relationship to society, his
account of the passions, the moral roles
of religion, and his treatment of the
role of mathematics in economics.
While the book does offer a single
argument, it is organized in a modular
fashion and includes a helpful
index; readers with a more focused
interest in Smith’s achievements can
skip to their section of interest.
