Theodore Besterman's edition of the notebooks Voltaire kept
throughout his long life show not only the staggering breadth of
his interests, but the wide reading, inquiry and curiosity which
Voltaire made a record of day by day. In their casual, careless
nature lies the great value of these notebooks, bringing before us
the living, authentic Voltaire. This edition aims to give the
reader as near a sense of the original as is typographically
practicable, while improving the readability of the text, in order
to depict as closely as possible the source and development of
Voltaire's thought.
