Focusing on the English deists, the book explores their role as reform agents in the rise of modernity, rather than merely as religious debaters. It posits that their ideology, which began to wane after 1730, underwent an evolution, transforming into a more contemporary perspective. Through this analysis, the work examines the lasting impact of deist thought on modern philosophical and social developments.
