Andrew Skinner, the Glasgow Edition, and Adam Smith

Jeffrey T. Young

OEconomia, 2012, vol. 2012, issue 03, 365-376

Abstract: I have been asked to write a memorial article on Andrew Skinner to recount and celebrate his contributions to our subdiscipline. I am honored to do so. I first met Andrew at the ESHET meetings in 1998, which were held at the University of Bologna. However, I got to know him, and his gracious wife, Mary, quite well during a sabbatical semester I spent under his sponsorship (and guidance) at Glasgow University in 2001. While Andrew is best known to me for his editorial and scholarly work on Adam Smith, he was equally involved in work on Sir James Steuart, and he had a passionate side-interest in Edward Chamberlin and the theory of monopolistic competition.
