This book explores how Joseph Glanvill, Fellow of the Royal Society, combined experimental philosophy and theology in his innovative and provocative defence of the existence of witchcraft - the Saducismus triumphatus (1681). Glanvill's work illuminates the interaction between changing religious and scientific thinking and attitudes to witchcraft.
