Science and Whig Manners: Science and Political Style in Britain, c. 1790–1850 (Studies in Modern History)
Description
Approaching the intersection of politics and science from the perspective of political history, this book looks at how nineteenth-century British Whigs used the themes of natural science to signal their identities, and how their devotion to a culture of liberality helped to define them. Offers a fresh take on a central theme in Victorian politics.
