Thomas Hobbes was important because he was a key figure in political philosophy and his work laid the foundation for modern social contract theory. His book "Leviathan" was influential in shaping thinking about the nature of government and society. Hobbes is known for his idea of the state of nature, where life is solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short without the presence of a strong central authority.
