In the emergence of British radicalism and socialism in the late
eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the works of Spence are
an indispensable element. He produced a comprehensive argument for
political and social revolution based on what he liked to call the
'real' rights of man. Decentralization, common ownership,
participation, and mutuality were central features of his ideas. He
is referred to as Britain's 'first modern socialist'.

This book brings the body and its passions back into a new theory
of social interaction and social order. Building on innovative
conceptions of order, change, and organization, Thomas Spence Smith
dramatically expands the definition of human interactions that hold
societies together. Here he examines the "strong interactions,"
such as love relationships, attachments, and addictive behaviors,
that are inherently unstable--but are integral parts of any social
order.
Blending physiology and psychology with historical examples of
social change and a sophisticated new model of social systems, this
book contributes to our understanding how societies are possible.
