Publisher's Synopsis
A Letter Concerning Toleration, written by John Locke, was originally published in 1689 and focuses on politics & social sciences while primarily centering on philosophy and religious beliefs and practices. In A Letter Concerning Toleration, John Locke develops a religious philosophy supporting toleration for various Christian denominations. John Locke's A Letter Concerning Toleration was written contrary to the writings of other authors of his time such as Thomas Hobbes whose writings were similarly focused on politics & social sciences but emphasized the religious philosophy of uniformity. One of the founders of Empiricism, John Locke viewed more religious groups as a way of preventing civil unrest.
