How Adam Smith Can Change Your Life: An Unexpected Guide to Human Nature and Happiness: Penguin. Dezvoltare personală.

Autor Russ Roberts
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 sep 2015
'A fun, fascinating, and original book that will challenge you to become a better version of yourself'
Daniel H. Pink, author ofDrive

What does it take to be truly happy? Should we pursue fame and fortune or the respect of our friends and family? How can we make the world a better place?

Two hundred and fifty years ago, Adam Smith addressed these fundamental questions in his life-long project,The Theory of Modern Sentiments.

Dwarfed by the success of Smith's masterpieceThe Wealth of Nations,The Theory of Modern Sentimentshas been virtually forgotten. But when Russ Roberts finally picked up the epic tome, he realized he'd stumbled upon the greatest self-help book that almost no one has read.

InHow Adam Smith Can Change Your Life, Rob­erts reinvigorates the neglected classic to unearth a treasure trove of timeless, practical wisdom that cuts to the core of what it means to be human. It will challenge you to think about the way you treat others, the decisions you make in pursuit of happiness, and your place in the world.

Recenzii

Roberts whisks the reader through Smith's "hidden gem" and skilfully blends modern examples with Smith's original, leaving you wanting to tackle his masterpiece
[Adam Smith's] moral values are rather neglected ... Happily, Russ Roberts has digested, condensed and commented upon Smith's theories of the good life ... the pursuit of happiness is not the pursuit of money
A great book. Makes you feel better about life, humanity, and yourself. Like having a conversation and a scotch with Adam Smith, or even better, Russ Roberts
'Can economists teach us how to live a good life? When the economists in question are Adam Smith and Russ Roberts, the answer is a definitive yes. Roberts shines a fresh light on Smith's ideas about morality and human nature and finds they hold up remarkably well in the 21st century. A fun, fascinating, and original book that will challenge you to become a better version of yourself'
Adam Smith was not just an economist; he had penetrating insights into human nature that informed his rich, subtle, and rev­olutionary approach to moral philosophy. Russ Roberts combines a deep understanding of what Smith was on about with a fluent writing style to bring out the surprisingly modern implications of Smith's thinking
'Russ Roberts has taken a brilliant but difficult classic - Smith'sTheory of Moral Sentiments- and written an engaging and inspiring meditation on virtue, friendship, and happiness. The result is a won­derful guide to living a good life'
