Hobbes' Leviathan is arguably the greatest piece of political philosophy
written in the English language. Since its first publication, Richard
Tuck's edition of Leviathan has been recognized as the single most
accurate and authoritative text, and for this revised edition Professor
Tuck has provided a much-amplified and expanded introduction. Other
vital study aids include an extensive guide to further reading, a note
on textual matters, a chronology of important events and brief
biographies of important persons mentioned in Hobbes' text.
