The Social Contract and The Discourses (Everyman's Library) Review: Worth the effort - Everyman's Library (cloth-bound) edition is a book worth having in your library. The G.D.H Cole translation is excellent and his preface in the appendix of the book is in itself considered a classic. The Everyman's edition, besides the Social Contract, includes his "Discourses on the Arts & Sciences", the "Origin of Inequality", "Political Economy" and the "General Society of the Human Race". I suggest a reading of the Discourses before tackling the Social Contract. It will give you a foundation in the authors' sophisticated and deeply intellectual thinking. Mr. Rousseau, among other things, was an odd fellow indeed and it would seem a difficult personality at best. One of his - for lack of a better term - "quirks," was his inability to maintain a friendship. In virtually every case he had a falling out with his friends over some issue. If ever there was a man that should have written an essay on irresponsibility it was Jean - Jacques Rousseau. He fathered 5 or six out of wedlock children and, I believe each with a different mother. As soon as each was born he immediately saw to it that the infant was delivered up to the nearest orphanage not wishing to have anything in his personal life to get in the way of his "freedom". Nonetheless Rousseau is worth the reading. His essay on inequality alone is well worth the price of admission. L.C. Robinson Review: Well-made - I'll let others review the material -- I just wanted to comment on the physical qualities of this hardcover. In a word: well-made. The copy I received was printed in Germany. Neat, tight binding. Integrated page-holder ribbon. Sturdy boards and nice cloth covering (dark green). The qualify is far beyond what you'd expect given the price. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #165,505 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #88 in Government Social Policy #429 in Political Philosophy (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 32 Reviews | ## Images ![The Social Contract and The Discourses (Everyman's Library) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61dSD5aC0GL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth the effort *by L***N on March 15, 2011* Everyman's Library (cloth-bound) edition is a book worth having in your library.
