This is a crucial period in Smith’s life for at least two reasons: i) it is during this time that Smith began to work on \u003ci\u003eThe Wealth of Nations\u003c\/i\u003e; and ii) it is generally understood that although some of his ideas about political economy were already formed before his trip, his encounters with many French political economists during his time in France helped him to further develop them. As such, this book provides a rich resource to further understanding Smith's world, his travel experiences and the people he met during this time and situates these within the broader context of Smith's life as a whole, and within the British aristocracy.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis work will be of value to students and researchers in the history of economic thought, travel studies and Scottish studies.\u003c\/div\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2021-10-09\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030465803\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-46578-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 312\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Editions Privat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47529757147276,"sku":"9783030465803","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030465803.jpg?v=1776044691","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030465803","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
