""A Letter to a Member of Parliament: Showing the Necessity of Regulating the Press"" is a historical book written by George West and Henry Clements in 1699. The book addresses the issue of the unregulated press and its negative impact on society. It argues that the press should be regulated in order to prevent the spread of false information and to protect the public from harmful ideas. The authors also discuss the importance of freedom of speech and the need for a balance between this freedom and the responsibility to ensure that information is accurate and not harmful. This book provides a fascinating insight into the political and social climate of 17th century England and the debates surrounding the regulation of the press.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
