Abstract
: 
"D. D. Raphael provides a critical account of the moral philosophy of Adam Smith, presented in his first book, The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Whilst it does not have the same prominence in its field as his work on economics, The Wealth of Nations, Smiths writing on ethics is of continuing importance and interest today, especially for its theory of conscience."--BOOK JACKET.
