His political theory heavily influenced the French Revolution, development of socialist theory and the growth of nationalism.

Offering coverage of the full range of Rousseau's ideas, the book firmly sets his work in the context of the Enlightenment and explores his contributions to social theory, theories of human nature, philosophy of education, political philosophy and autobiography. The book introduces the major thinkers and events that proved influential in the development of Rousseau's thought. --From publisher's description. |
