Reviews
'A masterpiece of clarity, rigorously argued and sensitive to the historical contexts of the texts it studies, Harrison's book combines the virtues of Cambridge analytical philosophers and Cambridge intellectual historians. รขโ‚ฌยฆ Confusion's Masterpiece is a challenging, stylish, witty book, and a brilliant contribution to the history of modern political philosophy.' The Philosophical Quarterly, 'รขโ‚ฌยฆ an outstanding treatment of seventeenth-century political philosophy รขโ‚ฌยฆ Harrison is far more philosophically tenacious than are most commentators on the political thought of this period. His questing interpretations of the works of familiar authors tease out puzzles in their arguments that are rarely discussed รขโ‚ฌยฆ He is sensitive to historical context in which the theories emerged and the historical situations of their authors.
