Will You Read the Wealth of Nations Without Reading the Theory of Moral Sentiments?
Can we understand the wealth of nations without understanding his first book, The Theory of Moral Sentiments? I think you can. Are you going to miss out on some of the richness and the textual interconnections between The Theory ofmoralsentiments and The Wealth of Nations? Yes. But what I am saying is that if you are interested in Smith's answer to the questions he outlines in The Wealth of Nation, you'll have a kind of rich answer even within that one book.
