Our primary focus will be understanding Smith on his own terms. Our secondary focus will be exploring how Smith’s ideas inform our thinking about automation and robotics.
This book club is a good fit for anyone who:
• wants to read Wealth of Nations

We will meet twice a month. Every week we’ll discuss two or three chapters from Wealth of Nations.
