This five-volume set gathers the cornerstones of Western philosophy and political thought, from Plato's "The Republic" and Aristotle's "Politics," which establish the foundations of justice and the ideal state, to More's "Utopia," which imagines a rationally ordered island society as a critique of European politics. Bacon's "The Advancement of Learning" argues for empirical inquiry as the path to knowledge, and human freedom, and Nietzsche's "Thus Spake Zarathustra" proclaims the death of God and the arrival of the Overman through the voice of a wandering prophet. Published by Heron Books, this handsome collection offers collectors and students a complete grounding in the ideas that shaped modern thought.
