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. รขโฌยฆ Confusion's Masterpiece is a challenging, stylish, witty book, and a brilliant contribution to the history of modern political philosophy.' The Philosophical Quarterly, 'รขโฌยฆ an outstanding treatment of seventeenth-century political philosophy รขโฌยฆ 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 รขโฌยฆ He is sensitive to historical context in which the theories emerged and the historical situations of their authors. He presents the work of Grotius, Hobbes etc. as attempts to deal with the problems raised by war and civil conflict, and weaves historical and philosophical themes together with immense skill.'
