This authentic docu-drama tells the Adam Smith Story to present his lost legacy so urgently needed for us and our world today. Along the way we meet his mother, his headmaster, the Duke of Buccleugh, Ben Franklin and above all we are inspired by his friendship with David Hume Through the Scottish Radical Enlightenment his views on religion and politics offer a critique of militant xenophobic fundamentalist terrorism/crusades and militant/greedy ultra-nationalistic tyrants. How are Wisdom - Justice - Compassion - Integrity (the four words on the Scottish Parliament's mace) proclaimed by this Professor of Moral Philosophy who became the Father of Modern Economics Through role-play these four words are examined and can become emblazoned on your mind, heart and will as they have been with others struggling with the consequences of the alternatives: Ignorance - Exploitation - Insensitivity - Hypocrisy.
