About the book

Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan is one of the foundational works of modern political philosophy. Hobbes argues that without strong government human society risks descending into violent conflict, leading individuals to surrender some freedoms to a sovereign authority. The work examines human nature, political obligation and the origins of legitimate power.
