"I don't agree with Rawls' Politcal liberalism, but I greatly appreciate his scholarship on the founding fathers of modern political philosophy. This is a great book for anyone interested in early social contract theory and early utilitarian theory. His exegesis on Hobbes, Locke, & Mill is indispensable; however, his comments on Rousseau & Marx leaves one wanting more. Perhaps this reflects something of his own politics. Great book for the student or lay-man."
