"Deserves our attentive reading on three counts. It is, first, an object lesson in how collections should be assembled; second, an important contribution to 18th Century / Enlightenment studies; and third, an innovative grappling with the emerging field of the history of the human sciences. . . . The volume is exemplary. . . . A splendid, unified contribution to an exciting new field."--"Journal of American History
