'The Cambridge History of Philosophy in the Nineteenth Century (1790–1870) has done an admirable job in presenting diversity without taking any partisan point of view with regard to any supposed essence in that century. Accordingly, this book is a welcome addition to the library of any scholar interested in the nineteenth century.' Dennis Vanden Auweele, Philosophischer Literaturanzeiger
