Product Information
Despite its modest size the Cambridge Philosophical Society has played a monumental role in the history of science. To mark the bicentenary of its founding in 1819, Susannah Gibson gives a vivid account of the illustrious (and sometimes eccentric) members of the society, their breakthrough discoveries, and the forging of modern science.

Her book is an excellent example of everything that public outreach should be: accessibly priced, informative, and entertaining." -- Ann Kennedy Smith, Times Literary Supplement"A vivid, deeply researched intellectual history." -- Kirkus"Reviewing a great book is much like witnessing a blue moon, infrequent but captivating.
