The Edinburgh Review: For The Year 1755 (1818) is a collection of essays and articles written by Adam Smith, one of the most renowned economists and philosophers of the 18th century. The book was published posthumously by Smith's literary executor, Joseph Black, and contains a selection of Smith's work that was originally published in the Edinburgh Review in 1755. The essays cover a wide range of topics, including economics, politics, history, and philosophy. They provide a fascinating insight into the intellectual climate of the time and reveal Smith's views on some of the key issues of the day. The book is divided into three sections. The first section contains essays on economics, including Smith's famous article on the division of labor. The second section covers politics and includes essays on the British constitution and the American colonies. The final section contains essays on history and philosophy, including a critique of David Hume's philosophy and an analysis of the concept of natural law. Overall, The Edinburgh Review: For The Year 1755 (1818) is an important historical document that offers a unique perspective on the intellectual life of the 18th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of economics, philosophy, or political thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
