Davies untangles the intricate development of this text and explores how Glanvillâs roles as theologian, philosopher and advocate for the Royal Society of London converge in its pages. Glanvillâs broader philosophical method and unique approach to the supernatural provide a case study that enables the exploration of the interaction between the rise of experimental science and changing attitudes to witchcraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1.
