In The Scientific Revolution in Global Perspective, William Burns places the Scientific Revolution, its causes and effects, in a global context. It breaks with the Eurocentric tradition of previous surveys to fully reimagine the emergence of modern science on a global scale. Based on cutting-edge scholarship, Burns fluidly integrates the history of the Scientific Revolution in a convincing and seamless fashion, providing the reader with a new appreciation for the origins of the global, technological world around them.
