Thomas Hobbes is a Leviathan. Gift book bound in leather.

The centuries-old dispute about the nature of power between such classics of political thought as Machiavelli and Montesquieu, Hobbes and Schmitt, does not lose its relevance today. Alexander Filippov, one of the leading experts in political philosophy, will help to understand the subtleties and nuances of this conversation.

Readers of Thomas Hobbes' famous treatise "Leviathan" are still fascinated by the image created by the author of a gigantic "artificial man", a powerful leviathan state. The reader is offered the original version of A. Guterman's 1936 translation, as well as a fragment of the 1868 edition, which was confiscated by the tsarist censorship at the time.
