  Explores a key period in the making of the modern West. Although the notion of 'dual revolutions,' economic in Britain and political in France, has been vigorously challenged, this book finds that 'revolutionary' is an apt description of the important cultural transformations that took place in both France and Britain at the onset of modernity.
