| 2. |  | Natural Right and History (Walgreen Foundation Lectures) from University Of Chicago Press Price: $14.28 Customer Review:  Basically, in the first third of the book Strauss lays down what Strauss takes to be an unbeatable case against natural rights.

| 3. |  | What is Political Philosophy? And Other Studies from University Of Chicago Press Price: $19.80 Customer Review:  For an author who is most often despised, and occasionally revered, one is surprised on how little consensus there is on what Leo Strauss actually thought.

| 10. |  | History of Political Philosophy from University Of Chicago Press Price: $24.52 Customer Review: This is the best philosophy (not just political) overview I have found. The essays for each philosopher are several pages long and cover all aspects of the philosopher's thought.
