Book Synopsis In the Shadow of Adam Smith by : Donald Rutherford
Download or read book In the Shadow of Adam Smith written by Donald Rutherford and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adam Smith, who has towered over economics for more than two hundred years, was not alone in Scotland in creating systems of analysis which would explain how economies function and prosper. Writers of various backgrounds – there being no such profession as 'economist' – who were inspired by issues of the day as well as by the writings of Smith and other Scots, made significant contributions to the development of economic theory and policy that are often overlooked today. In the Shadow of Adam Smith, a landmark work in the history of economic thought, surveys and integrates the ideas of eighty Scottish writers from the 18th and 19th centuries to reveal a startlingly rich tapestry of argument and debate on a wide variety of economic subjects, both philosophical and practical, that remain highly pertinent today. Government debt, economic growth, banking, credit, taxation – all were tackled by this remarkable, diverse collection of writers. Through reading their contributions to economics we both understand modern economic issues and thought more deeply, and gain a richer understanding of Adam Smith's thought and inheritance. Written in a crisp and readable style with a minimum of technical detail, this is an ideal book for students of the history of economics, as well as academics and general readers.
Book Synopsis Seeking Adam Smith: Finding The Shadow Curriculum Of Business by : Cox Iii Eli P
Download or read book Seeking Adam Smith: Finding The Shadow Curriculum Of Business written by Cox Iii Eli P and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2017-03-17 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dean of Harvard Business School, Nithin Nohria, declared that, "The public has lost trust in business, and some of our graduates seem to be responsible" for what former Federal Reserve Chair, Ben Bernanke, labelled as "the worst financial crisis in global history, including the Great Depression." Great resources and effort have been expended to incorporate ethics and corporate social responsibility into business curricula since the Great Recession. The effectiveness of these efforts has been limited because they have little impact on the technical and core business courses that serve as the gateway to the highest paying jobs. Additional, a shadow curriculum undermines the effectiveness of the formal curriculum. The formal curriculum is idealistic, coherent, and fully explicated. The shadow curriculum is practice, diffuse, informal, disjointed and is based on a view that Adam Smith proclaimed 'greed is good' because the invisible hand of free markets cleans up the mess. Seeking Adam Smith demonstrates that this view is indeed false, and is not found in Wealth of Nations. Cox offers alternative economics perspectives that are more realistic and less politicised than those of neoclassical microeconomics which permeates the business curricula.

Download or read book How Adam Smith Can Change Your Life written by Russ Roberts and published by Portfolio. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How the insights of an 18th century economist can help us live better in the 21st century. Adam Smith became famous for The Wealth of Nations, but the Scottish economist also cared deeply about our moral choices and behavior--the subjects of his other brilliant book, The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759). Now, economist Russ Roberts shows why Smith's neglected work might be the greatest self-help book you've never read. Roberts explores Smith's unique and fascinating approach to fundamental questions such as: - What is the deepest source of human satisfaction? - Why do we sometimes swing between selfishness and altruism? - What's the connection between morality and happiness? Drawing on current events, literature, history, and pop culture, Roberts offers an accessible and thought-provoking view of human behavior through the lenses of behavioral economics and philosophy"--

Book excerpt: Adam Smith’s landmark treatise on the free market paved the way for modern capitalism, arguing that competition is the engine of a productive society, and that self-interest will eventually come to enrich the whole community, as if by an ‘invisible hand’. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves – and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives – and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.
