Críticas:
Reliable and fair... Clear, relaxed, jargon-free and often attractively witty. (The Philosopher)

Offers a broad sweep across the history of political thought starting with Plato's Republic and ending with Mao's Little Red Book. This wide range is covered with surprising agility and clarity ... The central advantages of this book are undoubtedly its lucidity, range and unorthodox approach to presenting key thinkers who have deeply influenced political philosophy. (Times Higher Education Supplement)

This unusual book, hard to classify, is almost a handbook of the history of political philosophy (CHOICE)
Reseña del editor:
--A revised and expanded edition of this acclaimed introduction to political thought--

'Reliable and fair... Clear, relaxed, jargon-free and often attractively witty.' The Philosopher

'A handbook of the history of political philosophy.' CHOICE

"The central advantages of this book are undoubtedly its lucidity, range and unorthodox approach. ... This wide range is covered with surprising agility and clarity. The book offers an engaging account of political philosophy where great schools of thought are audaciously summarised in a paragraph or two." Times Higher Education Supplement

Guiding the reader through the key arguments of the classic figures of Western political philosophy, from Plato through to the modern era, this revised edition includes new essays on Aristotle's 'Politics', Confucianism, Islamic social philosophy and Nazism, as well as additional material on 'Roman Law', Anarchism and 'anti-capitalism'.

Cohen moves chronologically through the development of political philosophy. He presents key texts in their own terms, before offering short, precise analyses of their strengths, weaknesses and influence. The book finishes with a discussion of modern liberalism and conservatism.

Providing both a broad overview and precise summaries of key ideas, this is an invaluable guide for all students of political thought.
