The second edition of David Woottons Modern Political Thought: Readings from Machiavelli to Nietzsche offers a new unit on modern constitutionalism with selections from Hume, Montesquieu, the Federalist, and Constant. In addition to a new essay by Wootton, this unit features his new translation of Constants 1819 essay On Ancient and Modern Liberty. Other changes include expanded selections from Machiavellis Discourses on Livy and a new Hegel selection, all of which strengthen an already excellent anthology.
