The texts are supported by a concise introduction， suggestions for further reading and short biographies of key figures，all proving invaluable assistance to the student encountering the breadth and richness of Jefferson’s thought for the first time. JOYCE Appleby is Professor of History at UCLA，and a former President of the American Historical Association.TERENCE BALL is Professor of Political Science at Arizona State University，and has Previously edited the works of James Mill for the Cambridge Texts series.
