Political Animal Press means to publish works of real philosophy and serious political thought. That is our mission. And so, we are proud to announce the release of 'The Political Philosophy of Francis Bacon, With Special Attention to the Principles of Foreign Policy' by the late, great Laurence Berns of St. John's College, edited by Martin Yaffe of University of North Texas and Nathan Dinneen of Rochester Institute of Technology, who has also contributed a new Foreword to the book.

This work is a deep investigation of modernity, especially modern science and its relationship to political thought. Laurence Berns reveals how the great thinker and statesman Francis Bacon understood his scientific-technological project to surpass both the classical thinkers and Machiavelli in wisdom and ambition. He gives clear accounts of both the many successes of Bacon's modern project, and the many problems that arise because of the increase in humanity's scientific-technical knowledge. For those interested in understanding the political philosophy of one of the founders of modern science, along with coming to terms with some of the philosophical problems associated with that science, Berns's book is indispensable.

We are delighted that the editors, Yaffe and Dinneen, will be engaged in public discussions of this work with other scholars. There will be an online panel discussion in March (details soon), an appearance on the outstanding The New Thinkery podcast, and more.
