The book explores Hugo Grotius's influential work on public international law, highlighting its dual significance as both a legal foundation and a political theory advocating for individual rights. It emphasizes the authority of states and individuals to protect themselves and their property. The edition features commentary from Jean Barbeyrac, which shaped its reception, along with the Prolegomena from the original 1625 edition, newly translated into English, offering fresh insights into Grotius's seminal ideas.
