The Treatise On Human Nature And That On Liberty And Necessity: With A Supplement (1812) is a philosophical work by Thomas Hobbes, a prominent English philosopher of the 17th century. The book is divided into two main parts, the first being a treatise on human nature and the second being an exploration of the concepts of liberty and necessity.In the first part, Hobbes examines the nature of human beings and their behavior, arguing that people are fundamentally driven by self-interest and a desire for power. He also explores the role of reason and the limitations of human knowledge, suggesting that much of what we believe to be true is based on our own biases and perceptions.The second part of the book focuses on the concepts of liberty and necessity, specifically in relation to the idea of free will. Hobbes argues that while humans may feel as though they have the ability to make choices freely, in reality, their actions are determined by a combination of internal and external factors. He also explores the implications of this view for ideas of moral responsibility and punishment.The book concludes with a supplement, in which Hobbes discusses his views on various other philosophical topics, including the nature of the state and the role of government in society. Overall, The Treatise On Human Nature And That On Liberty And Necessity: With A Supplement (1812) is a thought-provoking and challenging work that continues to be studied and debated by philosophers today.To Which Is Prefixed An Account Of His Life And Writings.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
