Publisher Description

Why do we believe that all people are born with rights? Where did the revolutionary idea that governments must serve the people—and not the other way around—truly come from?

The answer begins with John Locke. In a world ruled by absolute monarchs and the doctrine of divine right, Locke dared to imagine a radical new foundation for society. He argued that the human mind begins as a blank slate, or tabula rasa, and that our most fundamental rights—to Life, Liberty, and Property—are not gifts from a king, but inherent to our nature.

This clear and engaging guide takes you on a journey through the mind of the "Father of Liberalism." You will discover how his concept of the Social Contract created a blueprint for a government built on the consent of the governed, and how his powerful defense of individual freedom provided the intellectual ammunition for the American Revolution.

From the halls of Oxford to the heart of political exile, this book reveals the story and the philosophy of the man whose words became the bedrock of modern democracy. It is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the origins of their own freedom.

Grasp the foundational ideas that launched nations. Explore the brilliant thought of John Locke today.
