The early modern era produced the Scientific Revolution, which
originated our present understanding of the natural world.
Concurrently, philosophers established the conceptual foundations
of modernity. This rich and comprehensive volume surveys and
illuminates the numerous and complicated interconnections between
philosophical and scientific thought as both were radically
transformed from the late sixteenth to the mid-eighteenth century.
The chapters explore reciprocal influences between philosophy and
physics, astronomy, mathematics, medicine, and other disciplines,
and show how thinkers responded to an immense range of
intellectual, material, and institutional influences. The volume
offers a unique perspicuity, viewing the entire landscape of early
modern philosophy and science, and also marks an epoch in
contemporary scholarship, surveying recent contributions and
suggesting future investigations for the next generation of
scholars and students.
