The second volume of Peter Gay's in-depth study of the dawn of the modern world—the Age of Reason.

The Science of Freedom completes Peter Gay's brilliant reinterpretation begun in The Enlightenment: The Rise of Modern Paganism. In the present book, he describes the philosophes' program and their views of society. His masterful appraisal opens a new range of insights into the Enlightenment's critical method and its humane and libertarian vision.

"A comprehensive and magisterial study. . . . A magnificent achievement." —J. W. Burrow, Saturday Review
