In The Enlightened Joseph Priestley Robert Schofield completes his two-volume biography of one of the great figures of the English Enlightenment. The first volume, published in 1997, covered the first forty years of Joseph Priestley’s life in England. In this second volume, Schofield surveys the mature years of Priestley, including the achievements that were to make him famous—the discovery of oxygen, the defenses of Unitarianism, and the political liberalism that characterized his later life. He also recounts Priestley’s flight to Pennsylvania in 1794 and the final years of his life spent along the Susquehanna in Northumberland. Together, the two volumes will stand as the standard biography of Priestley for years to come. Joseph Priestley (1733–1804), a contemporary and friend of Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, exceeded even these polymaths in the breadth of his curiosity and learning. Yet Priestley is often portrayed in negative terms, as a restless intellect, incapable of confining himself to any single task, without force or originality, and marked by hasty and superficial thought. In The Enlightened Joseph Priestley, he emerges as a man who was more than a lucky empiricist in science, more than a naive political liberal, more than an exhaustive compiler of superficial evidence in militant support of Unitarianism. In fact, he was learned in an extraordinary variety of subjects, from grammar, education, aesthetics, metaphysics, politics, and theology to natural philosophy. Priestley was, in fact, a man of the Enlightenment.

Joseph Priestley (1733-1804), philosopher, scientist and unorthodox theologian, was one of the intellectual giants of the Enlightenment. He wrote prolifically and made significant contributions in many areas of 18th-century life, including physical science, political economy, moral philosophy, history, education, metaphysics and theology. His work was highly influential, and among his followers were Jeremy Bentham, who took up his phrase the greatest happiness of the greatest number, and Jefferson, who made use of his ideas in the American Declaration of Independence.

"Philosophy, science, politics, history, and theology -- the range of Joseph Priestley's intellect was wide, and its current ran deep. Priestley (1733-1804) is noted equally as a founder of modern chemistry, a discoverer of oxygen, a dissenter against religious and political intolerance, and as a defender of civil liberties. This unique, one-volume selection from Priestley's voluminous writings provides a full and coherent picture of his thought in all areas. Selections have been made from his The Doctrine of Philosophical Necessity Illustrated, Disquisitions Relating to Matter and Spirit, Experiments and Observations on Different Kinds of Air, Lectures on History and General Policy, An Essay on the First Principles of Government, Letters to the Right Honourable Edmund Burke, The History and Present State of Electricity, etc. In his Introduction Professor Passmore relates Priestley's various interests one to another and stresses the pertinence of his work today. He has also provided a selected bibliography of Priestley's writings and of the writings about him."--The publisher
