Advance praise: 'This marvelous book shows how engaging Adam Smith can help us to 'humanize' social science for the twenty-first century. Economists in particular will find much food for thought in its novel approach to using models derived from Smith's ethics to rethink many familiar and less-familiar experimental results. But it's not only economists who will profit from it; indeed anyone interested in what it means to be a human being living in two realms at once - the economic and the personal, the self-regarding and the other-regarding - will benefit from the authors' masterful illumination of how our human world is in fact 'moral all the way down'.'
