Publisher's Synopsis

This collection of Swift's satirical works includes the famous 'The Battle of the Books', a controversial essay that pitted ancient and modern authors against each other. Other pieces skewer politics, religion, and human nature. Swift was a master of wit and irony, and his writing remains both hilarious and thought-provoking today.
