Description: "This work makes an important contribution to the field by extending the work of other scholars in the field into a new area of debate, namely the relationship between agrarian capitalism and radical political thought." --Colin Mooers, Ryerson University "This impressive study takes on a major challenge. Geoff Kennedy not only offers a clear and persuasive account of political ideas in their historical context, but also engages in methodological debate with other historians of political thought and explores the controversies among scholars of this much contested period in English history. He manages to interweave these different strands with commendable clarity and in accessible prose, suitable to a wide audience from specialists to students and the intelligent general reader." --Ellen Wood, York University
