'The SciPer index, together with the project's book publications [...]
will change the way we understand how science was assimilated, debated
and challenged in the 19th century [...] SciPer draws together the best
historical and cultural practice with the best literary critical
methodology. It promises to reinvigorate contemporary intellectual
practices'. Prof. Rebecca Stott, Times Higher Education Supplement.
