  Focusing on the wide-ranging character of the Enlightenment, both in geographical and intellectual terms, this title explores the movement's filiation and influence in various contexts. It emphasizes the evolutionary rather than the revolutionary character of the Enlightenment and its ability to change society by adaptation rather than demolition.
