現今各類書籍汗牛充棟，但能挺過歷史洗禮者卻寥寥無幾。而歷經數百年依然能流傳於世者， 自有其不可忽視之價值。在大學的殿堂，應當要有閱讀「經典著作」的氣度與決心。本課程擬 藉由導讀亞當斯密畢生最重要的兩本著作，帶領同學進入一個經濟與社會的對話世界。在導讀 的過程中，訓練培養同學獨立思考與分析事物之習慣，期望從而觸發修同學自我延伸閱讀的興趣與能力。

There are a lot of books of all kinds nowadays, but there are only a few who can survive the baptism of history. And those that can still be passed down to the world after hundreds of years have their own value that cannot be ignored. In the halls of universities, one should have the courage and determination to read "classics." This course aims to lead students into a world of economic and social dialogue through the introduction of two of the most important works of Adam Smith's life. During the guided reading process, students are trained to develop the habit of independent thinking and analysis of things, hoping to trigger students' interest and ability in self-extended reading.
