The Invention of Science explores the pivotal period in history between the 16th and 18th centuries, when the modern scientific revolution took shape. David Wootton examines the intellectual and historical shifts that led to the rise of modern science, challenging conventional ideas about the scientific method and progress.

Wootton argues that the development of science was not just a gradual evolution but a fundamental transformation that created a new worldview—one that continues to shape our lives today.
