It was great to see this new review on the website of the Citizen Scientists League.
“A very accessible history of British science in the early nineteenth century….Snyder brings us from the early days of natural philosophy, which looked nothing like what we would call science today, to the verge of the modern era where the word scientist was well known, where scientists would actually get paid for doing science, where the government began supporting scientific inquiry and science was beginning to be taught as a separate topic at universities….This is a great book for anyone who is interested in the history of science.”
