Sinossi
The Leviathan is the vast unity of the State. But how are unity, peace and security to be attained? Hobbes's answer is sovereignty, but the resurgence of interest today in Leviathan is due less to its answers than its methods. Hobbes sees politics as a science capable of the same axiomatic approach as geometry: he argues from first principles to human nature to politics. This book's appeal to the twentieth century lies not just in its elevation of politics to a science, but in its overriding concern for peace.

Recensione
Praise for Leviathan:
“Rich and complex. . .with fully fleshed characters, a fast-paced plot, thematic sophistication, and narrative cunning.”
– The Boston Globe
“The allure of Auster’s elegant plotting, the play of his ideas, and the sensuous nature of the prose keep us firmly hooked.”
– The Chicago Tribune
“Auster’s most accessible, engaging book. He treats us to his best, clear-eyed prose.”
– The New York Times Magazine
