Reviews
" . . . a uniformly strong introduction to the world of Reid and Campbell and beyond them to the circumstances and ideas of those crucial figures of the Scottish Enlightenment-Adam Ferguson, Hume, Francis Hutcheson, and Adam Smith. The volume is an example of the ways in which ideas and arguments and ideology and rhetoric can be introduced and explored clearly and without compromise." Studies in English Literature 1500-1900, '… succeeds admirably in providing wide coverage of Scottish intellectual life from 1681 to 1795 … the present volume will be useful to a wide variety of readers interested in the Enlightenment in Scotland.' Journal of Scottish Philosophy, "This volume maintains the high standard of excellence set by previous offerings in the Cambridge Companion series, making it a valuable reference for anyone interested in western philosophy and intellectual history." Theology Today, '... succeeds admirably in providing wide coverage of Scottish intellectual life from 1681 to 1795 ... the present volume will be useful to a wide variety of readers interested in the Enlightenment in Scotland.' Journal of Scottish Philosophy, "The study of the Scottish Enlightenment has expanded dramatically in recent years, not least through the work of many of the contributors to this collection of essays. By bringing together review essays on a wide range of topics, Alexander Broadie's work serves as an excellent introduction to current thought on the topic." Philosophy in Review, '… succeeds admirably in providing wide coverage of Scottish intellectual life from 1681 to 1795 … the present volume will be useful to a wide variety of readers interested in the Enlightenment in Scotland.'Journal of Scottish Philosophy
