"W. R. Scott's book was a pioneering effort, not only in the study of Hutcheson but of the Scottish Enlightenment, a term that he is thought to have launched. In his work on Hutcheson, as in that on Adam Smith, Scott set a new standard for documentation that became the starting point for most subsequent work on the biographical and broader context for Hutcheson's thought. The book remains the only book-length study in English of Hutcheson's life and work as a whole." --Knud Haakonssen

John Rae (1845-1915) wrote what is considered to be one of the finest biographies of Adam Smith, originally published in 1895. Reviewers, both contemporary and decades in the future, lavished praise on Rae's Life of Adam Smith, noting Rae's extensive use of archival material that had not been unearthed previously, as well as Rae's way of letting the information he presents speak for itself. The present volume is a high-quality facsimile reproduction of Rae's work.
