Editorial Reviews

An annotated guide bringing some order to the literature and--largely by means of an extensively annotated primary bibliography plus the presence in the secondary bibliography of many open-minded works--providing a basis for dispelling some of the persisting inaccuracies (and even myths) about Spencer's (1820-1903) thought. Following an introduction that reviews Spencer's life and intellectual development, the section on primary works is arranged chronologically, while the secondary part has a topical arrangement and includes English-language books, articles, and dissertations.
