Preparing for the Journey

Eli P Cox

Chapter 2 in Seeking Adam Smith:Finding The Shadow Curriculum of Business, 2017, pp 6-11 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: Some background information should make more comprehensible the journey I am about to describe. I start by providing a short biography of Adam Smith and a brief description of Wealth of Nations and his other works. I continue by defining greed because the term has been used carelessly and it is central to this book.
