The Theory of Moral Sentiments

By Adam Smith.

Adam Smith didn’t just think about money and markets. He was also much taken with the moral sentiments of humans, what drove them to be human. This books shows that he saw much more to humans than simply “self interest” the one instinct that dominates his Wealth of Nations. This book in contrast is a pioneering essay on human psychology, good and bad.
