Anthony Ashley Cooper (1621-1683) was in and out of political power for for more than three decades, variously an MP, privy councillor and minister of state, embodying the political twists and turns of seventeenth century Britain. Described as adversarial and mercurial, few politicians have been so reviled by their contemporaries for being self interested, a turncoat and a ruthless trouble maker, yet simultaneously recognised as critical to the age's struggles over religious and constitutional principles. This biography features chapter contributions from leading academics of the Restoration.
