Title: Great and difficult read
Review: Someone gave this great book and seminal work in political philosophy 2 stars just because it is "difficult to read". In fact, it is quite difficult to read. Partly because the Leviathan was written almost 400 years ago and partly because well, it is Hobbes. However, just because a book is hard to read does not mean that the content is bad or worthless. I would suggest the opposite, if our very simple thinking and poor intellectual abilities do not allow us to crack it open at the first attempt we should keep trying. That effort is what keep us moving forward.Great book, needless to say. Take your time and enjoy. If it gets difficult just leave it on the table, think about it and read it later. This book is not your quick weekend read. It is a book with complex arguments and structure. Sit, read and ponder. Enjoy!
