This work was originally published in 1650 as two separate books, Human nature, and De corpore politico. Human nature contained the first 13 chapters, De Corpore politico contained chapters 14 thru 19 of the first work, and chapters 20 thru 29. The present edition considers chapters 1 thru 19 as part 1, Human nature, and chapters 20 thru 29 as part 2, De corpore politico.
Included in this work are chapters from Hobbes' De corpore, translations of His Verse life, and Prose life, and an abstract of John Aubrey's Brief life.
