《论公民》是霍布斯于2003年在
中国政法大学出版社出版的一本书。该书分为三个部分，包括十八章和三个附录。主要内容包括讨论不存在公民社会时人的状态，
自然法是人的律法，国家的起因和产生，以及比较三类国家的弊端等。
托马斯·霍布斯认为，人们在自然状态下是自私自利的，需要国家来维护秩序和保障人民的利益。他主张国家应该是绝对主权的，而公民则应该服从国家的统治。该书对政治哲学和政治理论有着重要的贡献，被广泛引用和研究。
De Cive is the first full expositon of the political thought of Thomas Hobbes，the greatest English political philosper.Professors Tuck and Siverthorne have undertaken the first complete translation SICE 1651，a rendition long thought to be at least sanctioned by Hobbes himself.
On the Citizen is written in a clear，straightforward，expository style，and in many ways offers students a more digestible account of Hobbess political thought than the Leviathan itself.This new transltaion is both accurate and accessible，and is itself a significant schology，a bebliography and an expository introduction.Throughout，the editors have emphasized consistency in the translation and usage of Hobbess basic conceptual vocabulary，trspceting Hobbess own concern for accurate definition of tens.
