Rothkrug's bibliography of secondary works is exemplary in its fullness and he has used e.g. the interesting Finnish work by H. Kirkinen, Les origines de la conception moderne de I’homme-machine: le probléme de l’âme en France à la fin du règne de Louis XIV (1670–1715) which appeared in Helsinki in 1960 – a book which though published in French is probably not sufficiently known in this country.
