Thomas Hobbes 'the infamous author of Leviathan' is remembered chiefly for his political philosophy but his contemporaries were more concerned with the moral and materialistic views which formed the basis of his doctrines. Mintz sets Hobbes against his intellectual background and so gives an added dimension to his thought.
