Thomas Hobbes publishes the final section of his philosophical system in 1658, completing the scheme he had planned more than twenty years before.

De Homine consists for the most part of an elaborate theory of vision.

The remainder of the treatise deals cursorily with some of the topics more fully treated in the Human Nature and the Leviathan.

In addition to publishing some controversial writings on mathematics and physics, Hobbes also continues to produce philosophical works.
