The Theory of Value Before Adam Smith is a book written by Hannah Robie Sewall and published in 1901. The book is a historical analysis of the theories of value that existed before the famous economist Adam Smith. It explores the ideas of ancient Greek philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle, medieval theologians such as Thomas Aquinas, and early modern thinkers such as John Locke and David Hume. The author argues that these early theories of value were not based solely on economic considerations, but also on moral and ethical considerations. She shows how these theories evolved over time and influenced the development of modern economic thought. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different period in history and the corresponding theories of value. The author provides detailed analysis and critique of each theory, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. Overall, The Theory of Value Before Adam Smith is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of economic thought and the evolution of ideas about value. It provides a comprehensive overview of the theories that preceded Adam Smith and sheds light on their lasting impact on modern economic theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
