About the Author:
Ian Simpson Ross is Emeritus Professor of English
at the University of British Columbia. He is the author of Lord
Kames and the Scotland of His Day and William Dunbar and the
co-editor of The Correspondence of Adam Smith, with E. C. Mossner
With a minimum of pedantic intrusions, Ross makes a masterly job not only of putting Smith in the context of his turbulent times, but also of shedding light on his humane subject's wide-ranging contributions to Western thought. |S Kirkus Reviews |d 29/09/1995
