This concise study from a senior political philosopher looks at the principle of equality in the thought of John Locke. Throughout the text Jeremy Waldron discusses contemporary approaches to equality and rival interpretations of Locke, and this gives the whole an unusual degree of accessibility and intellectual excitement.
