From the moment of its publication in 1748, The Spirit of the Laws proved to be a controversial work provoking widespread interest. Within three years it had been translated into various European languages - and was swiftly added to the List of Prohibited Books by the Roman Catholic Church.

Lo curioso es que buena parte de esas que podríamos denominar «críticas al sistema» provienen de las personas menos indicadas para formularlas, es decir, de sujetos cuyas propuestas, caso de ser aplicadas, antes que contribuir a la salud del paciente, certificarían de forma definitiva su defunción. O ...
