This work traces the legacies traditions and visions of the English Enlightenment as they are expressed through Joyce's life and literary production. It explores the evolution of these traditions against the threatening background of the French revolution and the developing imperatives for education in general and science education in particular. In so doing the book recovers the life of a hitherto much neglected science writer and political activist and contributes to the histories of politics education science and the developing discipline of book history.
