About this ebook
The Second Treatise is one of the most important political treatises ever written and one of the most far-reaching in its influence.
In
his provocative 15-page introduction to this edition, the late eminent
political theorist C. B. Macpherson examines Locke's arguments for
limited, conditional government, private property, and right of
revolution and suggests reasons for the appeal of these arguments in
Locke's time and since.

I enjoyed it though it can be quite repetitive at times; it gives me an idea of where modern and classical liberalism ideas came from which will really help me with my essay of classical liberalism.
