Paperback. Condition: Good. Wootton's translation brings out the liveliness of More's work and offers an accurate and reliable version of a masterpiece of social theory.

This attractive combination suits the edition especially well for use in Renaissance and Reformation courses as well as as for Western Civilization survey courses.
