xii, 308 pages ; 25 cm. Beginning with the exploration of the problem of secularization and the role of modern science in seventeenth century Europe, Michael Heyd focuses in on a specific case study: the examination of the diffusion of Cartesian science and its relationship with the secularization of society in the context of a particular educational institution - the Academy of Geneva between the period of Orthodoxy and the beginning of the Enlightenment.
