Apropos of your inquiry the other day relative the REAL Adam Smith, I have
only today received my March, 1998 issue of _The Atlantic Monthly_ and find 
n
page 16, "Notes and Comments" an article that treats precisely of that to
which you referred, namely, the matter of how badly Adam Smith has been
represented as to his views on the "invisible hand."  The article is 
ntitled,
"Today's Most Mischievous Misquotation."  You will find it interesting
reading.  
Sincerely, 
                                     Frank
