"'McQueen meticulously and ingeniously traces the apocalyptic quality of the contexts
in which political authors/actors such as Machiavelli, Hobbes, and Morgenthau wrote,
and how this apocalypticism inflitrated their writings. The book is certain to make
an enormous impact in the fields of political thought, intellectual history, and American
studies, especially given the now fashionable 'theological' turn in political theory
and the dramatic surge in apocalyptic politics throughout the world.'--John P. McCormick,
University of Chicago"--Book jacket
