Thomas Hobbes was one of the most important and influential
philosophers of the seventeenth century. Covering all the key
concepts of his work, "Starting with Hobbes "provides an accessible
introduction to the ideas of this hugely significant thinker.
Thematically structured, this book leads the reader through the
full range of Hobbes's ideas and, uniquely, not just his political
philosophy. In his day, he was internationally as famous for his
theories about knowledge, language, the material nature of reality,
mathematics, psychology, and religion, as he was for his politics;
and these aspects of his work are fully covered. The book places
Hobbes firmly in his historical context, with discussions of his
relations to contemporary thinkers such as Galileo and Descartes
and his influence on later thinkers such as Spinoza and Leibniz.
This is the ideal introduction for anyone coming to the work of one
of the greatest of English philosophers for the first time. >
