This carefully selected compilation of the significant writings of the great political philosophers, scientists, and thinkers has long been an invaluable guide to the general reader as well as to the serious student of history, political science, and government.

Professor Curtis has written running commentary that places the extracts and their authors in the sequence of modern history.
