Review
an important literary and philosophical event ... [the letters] open a window onto many aspects of the seventeenth-century world; anyone interested in history, literature, politics, philosophy, and the history of science will find them utterly absorbing. (Financial Times )
No one who hopes to understand the remarkable position which [Hobbes] came to occupy in the history of ideas will be able in future to ignore Malcolm's edition ... a most impressive achievement (Times Higher Education Supplement )
these letters present a striking picture of the milieu of an extraordinary genius ... Noel Malcolm rounds off these two beautifully produced volumes with succinct biographies of Hobbes's correspondents, written with the elegance, modesty and impeccable scholarship that characterise the edition as a whole. (Sunday Telegraph )
The whole range and depth of Dr Noel Malcolm's labours, are beyond praise and almost beyond belief ... The book is essential reading for all serious students of Hobbes's life and thought. (Political Studies )
a meticulous and comprehensive example of scholarship (The Times )
superbly edited (The Independent )
The appearance of these two volumes of correspondence is undoubtedly on of the most significant events of recent years not only in the field of Hobbes studies, but also in the more general area of seventeenth-century philosophical and scientific culture ... [the] rich editorial material contributes to the great scholarly value of the work. (BJHS )
