Recenzje

Schliesser's book on Adam Smith is simply fabulous. There has never been a book until now that makes the case for Smith as a systematic thinker. I read the whole with great delight. It will get an enormous amount of attention since Schliesser is the only authority who is comfortable with so many aspects of Smith's work.
