520    "A philosopher and historian, Adam Ferguson occupies a 
       unique place within eighteenth-century Scottish thought. A
       man of energy and verve, he made important contributions 
       to social and moral theory, political philosophy and to 
       the study of history. Reared in the highlands of Scotland,
       he lived most of his life in the enlightenment world of 
       Edinburgh, participating in the city's social clubs and in
       the broader public and intellectual life of his nation. 
       Renowned for An Essay on the History of Civil Society 
       (1767), he also wrote pamphlets on political issues, 
       published works of moral and political philosophy, 
       authored a multi-volume history of the Roman Republic and 
       composed numerous manuscript essays. Distinguished by a 
       moral and historical bent, his work is framed within a 
       teleological outlook that upholds the importance of action
       and virtue in the emerging commercial society of the 
       eighteenth century."--Publisher description.
