James Paxton Livres

The book serves as a pivotal transition from eighteenth-century whiggism to nineteenth-century liberalism, reflecting key scientific, theological, and ethical ideas of its time. Originally based on William Paley's Cambridge lectures, it became a required text for undergraduates due to its clear exposition and engaging writing style. This classic work offers valuable insights into the evolving concepts of liberty and virtue in early nineteenth-century Anglo-American thought, making it an essential example of Enlightenment philosophy and theological utilitarianism.
