For students, teachers, and curious minds, this structured, jargon-free series helps you understand brilliant intellectuals and their complex theories. Each book is engaging and accessible, guiding you through the life and influences of these thinkers and exploring three of their key theories in plain English. This volume focuses on a political philosopher from Geneva who significantly impacted the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. His works are foundational to modern political, economic, and educational thought. It examines his life and the influences that shaped his ideas, followed by an exploration of three key concepts. First, it analyzes Rousseau's Second Discourse, where he argues that nature makes humans equal, while society creates inequality. Next, it delves into The Social Contract, discussing Rousseau's views on Power and Authority, the Just State, Positive and Negative Freedom, and the Role of the Lawgiver. Finally, the book addresses Rousseau's educational treatise, Émile, written alongside The Social Contract, where he advocates for an education of the senses, emphasizing the importance of letting one's heart guide faith rather than intellect.
