Review # 1 was written on 2014-05-11 00:00:00 William Odell The little vignettes at the end of the chapter felt forced and the information on hormone replacement therapy is out of date but otherwise really solid information and advice.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-03-23 00:00:00 Brian Vandermark This introductory text's temperature, clarity and pace, bringing together the essence of political thought with its historical context, really does the trick for an enthusiastic beginner in political philosophy. I think I can trace Sabine's own affinity towards some of his subject matters, however his personal fascinations or predilections never mouth his broad and deep inquisition, but rather invest it with humour and learned worldliness. I particularly enjoyed his account on Plato and Aristotle, where his brilliant writing shines from its interdisciplinary quality and on Hobbes, Rousseau and Hegel, where he really disentangles the key points from the most elaborate philosophic work of the early and late Enlightenment. It's a 5 star this one, you just can't go wrong with Sabine.
