Description

Description from Gegnir/Leitir — Icelandic Union Catalogue

The relationship between technology, philosophy, and politics is both contentious and vital to our understanding of human nature and the ways human beings interact with one another in society; Francis Bacon outlined the wild potential and great danger of this relationship. This book explores Bacon's role as a founder of modern political science and the place of his New Atlantis in the founding of modern political thought.
