SYNOPSIS: As an introduction to political theory and science, this collection of writings by the greatest philosophers in the history of Western civilization, from Plato to Montesquieu, will be of close interest to general readers. It also forms a basic textbook for students of government and political theory. A second volume will include the writings of eighteenth-, nineteenth- and twentieth- century authors - Rousseau and Burke to the present day. Such fundamental concepts as Democracy, the Rule of Law, Justice, Natural Rights, Sovereignty, Citizenship, Power, the State, Revolution, Liberty, Reason, Materialism, Toleration and the Place of Religion in Society are traced from their origins, through their development and changing patterns, to show how they serve as a guide to our political thinking and institutions today. Professor Curtis contributes a lively introduction to the volume and a running commentary that explains the significance of each tract of major political thought. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
