《世界·大师·原典·文库：道德情操论（中文导读插图版）》是亚当·斯密的伦理学著作，他一生中共修订过六次。斯密从人类的情感和同情心出发，讨论了善恶、美丑、正义、责任等一系列概念，进而揭示出人类社会赖以维系、和谐发展的秘密。《道德情操论》对于促进人类福利这一更大的社会目的起到了更为基本的作用，是市场经济良性运行不可或缺的“圣经”，堪称西方世界的《论语》。

如果把《国富论》的巨大成功看作在当时社会转型过程中亚当，斯密在其道德理论的土壤上培养出的丰硕果实，那么无疑在人类社会同样面临重大转型的当代，在天平已经越来越偏向自爱的时代，对于这一理论的探讨同样十分重要。《道德情操论》准确传达了斯密深邃的道德理论。温家宝总理先后五次在不同场合推荐这部大师巨著。
