Reviews
"...an interesting case study of the seventeenth-century culture which produced modern science. An excellent book for any scholar interested in a more detailed understanding of the early development of science in general and Isaac Barrow's contributions in particular." Perceptual and Motor Skills, "Barrow emerges as an interesting person living in interesting times, and Feingold's book captures this in a scholarly manner." Tom McMullen, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society, "...a model worthy of emulation. By focusing the attention of scholars on a single object--a theme...or a particularly representative figure...such a volume refreshes and revives the scholarly debate. Feingold and the Cambridge Universiy Press deserve our plaudits." Robert H. Kargon, Albion, "A scholarly, carefully researched book for all students of 17th-century intellectual history and history of science." Choice
