Adam Smith
About this listen
Discover the mind behind the modern economy.
This edition features a custom introduction offering biographical insight into Adam Smith’s life and the historical context that shaped his revolutionary ideas. From his early years in Scotland to his mentorship under moral philosopher Francis Hutchinson, uncover the journey that culminated in two of history’s most influential works.
The Wealth of Nations (1776), presented in its complete, unabridged version, laid the foundation for modern economic theory. Divided into five parts, Smith’s analysis of self-interest, free markets, and the division of labor continues to shape economic policies worldwide.
The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759), which Smith considered his most important work, explores human morality. Smith argues that empathy—what he called a “mutual sympathy of sentiments”—plays a crucial role in shaping our actions toward others.
Together, these works present a complete vision of Smith’s philosophy: a world where human behavior is driven by both economic self-interest and moral responsibility. His timeless ideas remain essential for understanding the complex relationship between economics and human nature, and continue to influence thought today.
Spanning over 57 hours, whether you're studying economics, philosophy, or seeking to grasp the foundations of capitalism and morality, the Adam Smith Collection offers an unparalleled journey into the mind of the father of modern economics.

Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) was the first major text by Adam Smith who, seven years later, was to publish what was to become one of the major economic classics, The Wealth of Nations (1776). However, Smith regarded The Theory of Moral Sentiments as his most important work because in it he identified the profound human instinct to act not necessarily in self-interest but through, as he phrased it, a ‘mutual sympathy of sentiments’.

It was Adam Smith (1723-1790) who first established economics as a separate branch of knowledge, and many would say his work has never been surpassed. The Wealth of Nations, which appeared in 1776, is the definitive text for all who believe that economic decisions are best left to markets, not governments. At the heart of Smith's doctrine is an optimistic view of the effects of self-interest. Though each individual seeks only personal gain, the collective result is increased prosperity, which benefits society as a whole.

Ever tried a 'quick' grocery run with your toddler, only to feel like you’ve walked into a circus, minus the entertaining clowns and popcorn? I know that scenario all too well. Parenting isn't about living up to everyone else's expectations but rather tuning into and accommodating our children's unique needs. This journey revealed something universal: our parenting struggles are real, and they're shared. Whether it's the frantic morning rush, persuading a child to eat their greens, or navigating an explosive tantrum in public, parenting is ripe with opportunities for growth.

A Perfect Rendering of this Seminal Work
The is a perfect rendering of Adam Smith’s timeless tome on economics and social development. While a lot of the real-world examples are understandably anachronistic (he discusses slavery in economic terms, after all) the underlying logic and analysis is nonetheless sound. Adam Smith doesn’t need my endorsement, so I give this review mostly of the rendering of the audiobook, which is about as close to perfect as it could be.

Historical Economics Deep Dive
If you want to learn about modern economics and human morality, you gotta check out the "Adam Smith Collection." This edition starts with an insightful introduction that paints a vivid picture of Adam Smith’s life and the historical backdrop that inspired his groundbreaking ideas. He began in Scotland, then studied under Francis Hutchinson, and it all led to two really influential works.
Smith's book The Wealth of Nations talks all about self-interest, free markets, and how work gets divided, setting the stage for today's economics. This book is all about how empathy helps us be moral. Together, these works provide a comprehensive look at Smith's philosophy, balancing economic self-interest with moral responsibility. If you're into economics, philosophy, or just want to understand capitalism and morality, this collection is over 57 hours long.

It made me question how I make choices everyday
I honestly didn’t expect this to grab me, but it really made me think. The whole idea that we act out of self-interest but still care about others hit me harder than I expected. I started seeing these patterns in my own life and in the world around me. It’s a long listen, but the lessons are real, and they make you rethink a lot of things—how you spend, how you treat people, even how you think about your own goals. If you're ever curious about what really drives us, this book gives you a new way to look at everything.

A Timeless Masterpiece of Economics and Morality
The Adam Smith Collection brings together two of the most profound and enduring works in human thought, The Wealth of Nations and The Theory of Moral Sentiments, offering a rare glimpse into the genius behind modern economic and ethical theory. I’ve read various editions over the years, but this one, with its rich introduction, beautifully contextualizes Smith’s life, mentorship under Francis Hutchinson, and the intellectual climate of 18th-century Scotland. It’s not just a collection but a true journey through the mind of one of history's greatest philosophers.

A must-listen for understanding modern economics

The combination of economic analysis with moral philosophy really highlights how intertwined these concepts are in society. It’s fascinating to see how Smith’s thoughts on empathy and self-interest still resonate today. While it’s a lengthy listen, the clear structure and historical context make it approachable for anyone wanting to explore these timeless works.

Economics + Empathy = Mind Blown
Who knew Adam Smith was this cool? I picked up the Adam Smith Collection thinking I’d just skim the big ideas, but wow—this is deep stuff! The Wealth of Nations really breaks down how markets work, and you start to see the world through a totally new lens. But the surprise for me was The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Smith goes beyond money and talks about how empathy and morality fit into our everyday decisions. It’s like getting both sides of his brain—economics and ethics. If you’re curious about how capitalism started and want to dive into some timeless philosophy, this collection is a solid choice.
