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.

The word ‘Independence’ is, quite frankly, a very common word today – celebrated, venerated, and metaphorically worn as a badge by every citizen of a democracy, such as the United States. And it has a deep association with the word ‘Freedom.’ For any American today, these two form the basis of their fundamental rights – you were born with them, and you will die with them. But have you ever thought about the weight that these two words carry? Or the toll they left in their wake within the bloodied pages of the history of the United States?

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.

Story
Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

The Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide. Declining birth rates, mass immigration, and cultivated self-distrust and self-hatred have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their own comprehensive alteration as a society and an eventual end.

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.

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.

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.

Really interesting ideas!
I really learned a lot from this collection. This guy had it right from the jump. People want to act in their own self interest when it comes to economics and this guys understands that. It’s really interesting to dive into one of the great and early economic minds of this country.

Great educational book
One of the greatest minds in economics, Adam Smith is the name known to anyone. This collection is great educational material if you want to learn the foundation for modern economic theory. His other work is about human morality. It's a less-known book but interesting. Both books represent where both economic self-interest and moral responsibility drive human behavior.
