It is a text of fundamental importance for understanding the thought and culture of Enlightenment Europe. This volume presents a new edition of the text together with an introduction that examines its relationship to its historical period and to Shaftesbury's thought as a whole."--Jacket OP - 490 CN - B1385.A3 S52 1999eb SN - 0511010451 SN - 9780511010453 SN - 0521570220 SN - 0521578922 KW - Philosophy : Social aspects : England : 18th century.
