The Elements of Law (1640) presents a complete but succinct version of Hobbes's political theory and of his more general philosophy. Johann P. Sommerville's edition establishes a more accurate text based on all the eleven known manuscripts, drawing extensively on modern scholarship on Hobbes and his contexts.
