Red morocco title and volume labels. Triple fillet frame on covers. Small lack at head. Lack to upper joint at head. Upper joint cracked at foot. Light lack at foot. Rubbing. Gin's work is first a defense of monarchical power as the natural form of government against the theories of Montesquieu and those of Mably but beyond this starting postulate the whole is remarkable for its economic reflections Gin making agriculture and industry the pillars of economic health. The author strives through history and examples borrowed from various nations like China to prove his theories irrefutably. Voltaire's work is a skillful reflection on the relativity of laws and notably on their injustice. Voltaire examines each category of criminality theft crime heresy sorcerers. and the laws that have been established. One of Voltaire's last works animated by the ardor to convince his contemporaries of the urgency of reforming the laws. S. n. unknown
