{"product_id":"auguste-comte-mary-pickering-9780521119146","title":"Auguste Comte: Volume 3: An Intellectual Biography","description":"This volume continues to explore the life and works of Auguste Comte during his so-called second career. It covers the period from the coup d' tat of Louis Napoleon in late 1851 to Comte's death in 1857. During these early years of the Second Empire, Comte became increasingly conservative and anxious to control his disciples. This study offers the first analysis of the tensions within his movement. Focusing on his second masterpiece, the Syst me de politique positive, and other important books, such as the Synth se subjective, Mary Pickering not only sheds light on Comte's intellectual development but also traces the dissemination of positivism and the Religion of Humanity throughout many parts of the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Pickering\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521119146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521119146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/14\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 682\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/25\/2012 pg. 61","brand":"Mary Pickering","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44634236551423,"sku":"9780521119146","price":106.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_16dc5fed-582f-45f7-80c8-b7976ddbf534.jpg?v=1703588250","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/auguste-comte-mary-pickering-9780521119146","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
