With deep historical insight and rigorous philosophical analysis, the author uncovers the tensions and limits in Locke's vision, including his exclusions of Catholics and atheists, and shows how subsequent thinkers expanded and contested his ideas.

Richly contextualized and accessible, this work speaks to scholars, policymakers, and general readers alike, offering profound lessons for navigating today's fractured world.
