Review Romanticism and Science, 1760-1840 (Subcultures and Subversions 1750-1850) / Routledge:In the years 1760-1840, scientific developments were revolutionizing the ways in which people viewed the world, and this extended to the literary arena. Ranging from late eighteenth-century political writings to mid-nineteenth- century pamphlets on vaccination, this collection is divided into sections by scientific discipline, each illuminating a context of current interest to literary scholars. The first volume offers an extensive introduction tracing the development of various scientific fields, and explores the central texts/discoveries and their significance, as well as providing an account of their impact on literature. A bibliography of major scientific works and suggestions for critical reading is also provided, as is a detailed index.

Volume I collects critical articles by Dunlap, Hot, Lashley, Mead, Thorndike, Tolman, Watson, Yerkes and others concerned with the continuing articulation of the behaviorist program. Volumes 2-6 reprint the full texts of five of the most important monographs contributing to the early growth of behaviourism: Allport's Social Psychology [1924], Hamilton's An Introduction to Objective Psychopathology [1925], Weiss's A Theoretical Basis of Human Behaviour [1925] and Dashiell's Fundamentals of Objective Psychology[1928].

Review Collected Works of E. B. Tylor / Routledge/Thoemmes P:Sir Edward Burnett Tylor (1832-1917) is generally regarded as the founder of anthropology. The focus of his work was the application of scientific method to the study of human society and the development of culture. His work was based on an evolutionary model of ethnology, proposing that civilized society had originated from natural (rather that supernatural) processes that could be observed in "savage" or "uncivilized" contemporary societies. A tour of Mexico inspired his first work, Anahuac, or Mexico and the Mexicans (1861), a travelogue with ethnological observations of the 1855 trip. This was followed in 1865 by Researches into the Early History of Mankind, his first systematic ethnological look at the world. His two volume work of 1871, Primitive Culture, resulted in his election as a Fellow of the Royal Society and established him as the leading English anthropologist of his generation.

Review Early Sociology of Religion (Critical Concepts) / Routledge:The study of religion was of central importance in the emergence of modern sociology and anthropology, as is demonstrated by its significance in the writings of Emile Durkheim, Max Weber and Georg Simmel. European colonialism had given ample opportunities for the study of "primitive" cultures and their beliefs. In a social and intellectual environment which was increasingly secular and influenced by the norms of natural science these studies called into question the truth value not only of "primitive" religions, but also of Christianity. By the late nineteenth century the emerging social sciences appeared unanimous in their view that religion would not survive the forces of science, industrialization and economic individualism. The volumes in this set illustrate both how this position emerged, and how it was superseded by modern sociological and anthropological approaches which were more appreciative of the social value of religious practice. Durkheim is of obvious significance in this context, but the set also demonstrates the importance of the work of figures such as Andrew Lang and W. Robertson-Smith.
