Reviews

Dunn wears his erudition lightly and writes clearly and freshly about some of politics' most venerable questions.... Blows a gust of fresh air through the cobwebbed byways of political thought. --John Gray, Independent John Dunn has given us a rare thing: an intellectually aristocratic book written for a profoundly democratic age. --Sunil Khilnani, Financial Times Stimulating and deft.... An impressive and interesting book. --Andrew Roberts, Daily Telegraph A marvellously rich book. --David Marquand, New Statesman John Dunn's book is much more than a history of democratic ideas.... [It is] among the most original and thought-provoking books on politics to have been published in England for many years, written in a spare, incisive English style which at its best is worthy of Hobbes. --John Sumption, Spectator
