Description: From the back cover:This is the best volume available for studying and teaching Rousseau in English. It brings together the three texts necessary for an understanding of the whole scope of the later work together with some of Rousseau‘s most illuminating replies to his critics. The translations themselves are paradigms of excellence: scrupulously accurate, happily phrased, and quite self-effacing, they could only have been produced by a thorough master of Rousseau‘s thought. The numerous footnotes, explain references and remove difficulties without obtruding tendentious views. As a whole, therefore the volume does more to make Rousseau accessible to beginner and scholar alike than any of which I know.
