Political Philosophy by Dudley Knowles

A comprehensive introduction to political philosophy. Introduces key thinkers such as Hobbes, Locke, Marx, Mill, Berlin, Rawls and Nozick. Issues discussed include utilitarianism, liberty, rights, justice and democracy.

'The author presents his arguments.. with great good humour and proper modesty... his sections on Berlin, Hayek and Rawls are masterpieces of compression; and the chapter on rights takes one through Hohfeldian and other terminologies with admirable briskness. But throughout, the footnotes and reading list will lead the teacher and student to where they need to go next.' - Australian Journal of Political Science
