Reviews

The book examines ideas that were core to the philosophical foundations of the Enlightenment by viewing them through the wide array of political regimes and geographies in which they took shape... This book is an indispensable reading for those seeking to know about the theory that informs the Enlightenment heritage as it played out in European and non-European contexts. -- Studies in History, Volume 32 (Issue 1), February 2016
