John Locke (1632-1704), one of the great philosophers, is probably
best known for his contributions to political thought. In this
outstanding volume, Eric Mack explains Locke's philosophical
position, placing it in the tumultuous political and religious
context of 17th century England. For Locke, entering into political
society did not involve giving up one's natural rights, but rather
transferring to governmental authority the job of protecting those
rights. In this rigorous critical analysis, Mack argues that Locke
provides an impressive - if not decisive - philosophical case for
the view that individuals have natural rights to life, liberty and
property, despite the existence or actions of any political
authority.
