Hobbes 
The Arguments of the Philosophers

First Published in 1999. The purpose of this series is to provide a contemporary assessment and history of the entire course of philosophical thought. Each book constitutes a detailed, critical introduction to the work of a philosopher of major influence and significance. Hobbes’s writings are dominated by a preoccupation with science: what it is, how it is organized and learned, and why creatures like us cannot do well without it.
