Description: "In this introduction, Edward Feser examines Locke's philosophy in its historical context, trades its influences on subsequent thinkers, and provides a critical evaluation of Locke's legacy. It is in Locke's thought, the author argues, that we find the origins of many of the intractable conflicts that dominate modern Western society and politics."--BOOK JACKET.
