The editor thankfully never modernized the English, and one can relish the obsolescent words and phrases. The layout is also great in that it has much wider margins than a normal book and the size of the text seems a bit larger too, making it much easier to read. Its been such a long time since last reading it, that I forgot how weird, but also how logical, it is; the last part is especially weird. This edition needed an updated further reading section, and footnotes to explain or clarify archaisms and to tell the reader of Greek terms and Latin phrases (for this the Hackett edition is by far the best). The problems/ issues that the work raises are numerous (wouldn't it be just as strong an argument for global governance? is an example) and would take up too much room for this comment.
