Vividly written, The Infidel and the Professor is a compelling account of a great friendship of two towering Enlightenment thinkers that had great consequences for modern thought. David Hume is widely regarded as the most important philosopher ever to write in English, but during his lifetime, he was attacked as "the Great Infidel" for his skeptical religious views and deemed unfit to teach the young. In contrast, Adam Smith was a revered professor of moral philosophy and is now often hailed as the founding father of capitalism.

In How Adam Smith Can Change Your Life, Roberts examines Smith’s forgotten masterpiece, and finds a treasure trove of timeless, practical wisdom.

Soon after, he is visited by God, who commands him to keep writing, instructs him on the chapters, and guides his words. 18 years after starting the capture of the unknown parts of his brain, the book barely survived.

Explore the captivating journey of Bostonian Henry Adams as he grapples with the transformative changes of the early 20th century, a stark contrast to his youthful days.

It wasn’t until his death in 1918 that the book was commercially published and subsequently awarded the 1919 Pulitzer Prize.
