Review

This book is required reading for students and teachers of science in early modern Europe. With clear prose and a strong narrative, Dear guides the reader through the methodological and metaphysical upheavals that defined early modern science. – Michael Bycroft, University of Warwick, UK

Revolutionizing the Sciences is a highly-engaging and readable history that both explains traditional interpretations of the Scientific Revolution and offers challenging and innovative revisions to those accounts. The book is a critical starting-point for understanding the many fascinating debates around the origins of modern science going on today. – Simon Werrett, University College London, UK
