Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book traces intellectual evolution over the past century, starting with the French Revolution and its pivotal influence on scientific, philosophical, and artistic thought. The author argues that at its core is the idea of 'intellectual independence'â"the power of man to think for…himself and question dogma. The book charts the rejection of religious and political orthodoxy, leading to a new era of Enlightenment, with writers such as Voltaire and Rousseau championing reason, and the Encyclopedists calling for scientific inquiry and social amelioration. The influence of scientists like Newton and Herschel in introducing the concept of universal physical laws, along with the discovery of the unity of substance through spectroscopy, is also discussed. The book concludes by considering how this period laid the groundwork for the coming century's intellectual and scientific endeavors.
