well read by this reader, very clear. This is a book for a student of economics and details many fundamentals. It surprises me how many Economists have "cherry picked" small passages and missed many important concepts, extrapolating the concept of a free market never envisaged by Adam Smith.
A great book, but better to start at volume 1

An excellent read of a fascinating book. Kudos to the reader for keeping five volumes of economic theory interesting. Topical, given the dependence politicians of the Right seem to place on the text.

This book of Smith's is particularly insightful in regards to historical events at the time. As always a good, clear reading, though it can be a little void of dynamics, which considering the content is not surprising.
Outstanding Reading
