"Those of us who work in moral and political philosophy owe a great debt of gratitude to the editors for taking such care in assembling this wonderful anthologyThis is easily the best, most exhaustive collection on Freedom with which I am familiar." Christopher Wellman, Washington University in St Louis

"Among the main themes of this superb collection is that freedom has many dimensions, and among the many conditions of securing it is a willingness not to exaggerate the importance of securing everything. Every college should teach a course on freedom and its prerequisites, and Freedom: An Anthology would serve admirably as a primary reference text." David Schmidtz, University of Arizona
