cities and industrial communities," and TJ's laissez faire doctrines.

Pages: pp. xiv, 208
Notes: On TJ as philosophical
thinker and on his philosophical background. Concentrates on his thought after 1785 and thus
perhaps over-emphasizes the importance of French influences by first encountering him during
his stay in France. Still, a standard book; even if it can be supplemented with Colbourn's Lamp
of Experience and Wills' Inventing America, they have not displaced it. Originally a Ph.D.
dissertation at Columbia Univ. and published as such.
