In How Adam Smith Can Change Your Life, Rob­erts examines Smith's forgotten masterpiece, and finds a treasure trove of timeless, practical wisdom. Smith's insights into human nature are just as rel­evant today as they were three hundred years ago. 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? Smith's unexpected answers, framed within the context of current events, literature, history, and pop culture, are at once profound, counterintui­tive, and highly entertaining.
