Reflections on The Revolution in France

A work that has been influential in political philosophy history and revolutionary thought for two centuries is now available in a fresh modern edition that warns readers of the catastrophic repercussions of mismanaging change. Burke's Reflections of the Revolution in France written for a generation confronted with enormous challenges—the Industrial American and French Revolutions to name the most obvious—displays a keen awareness of the high stakes that can be involved in politics as well as a keen ability to place current issues within a larger context of political theory.
