Barbara Skarga (1919-2009) was one of the most important Polish intellectuals of the 20th century, whose enormous contribution to Polish philosophical and scientific life is invaluable. Her work as a professor of philosophy at the Polish Academy of Sciences and as the chairman of the editorial board of the journal "Etyka" testifies to her commitment and passion for philosophy. Skarga left behind a rich scientific legacy, including numerous book publications and articles that continue to inspire subsequent generations of researchers.

Orthodoxy and Revision in French Positivism is not only a historical analysis, but also an attempt to understand contemporary philosophical problems. Skarga, through the prism of Comte's thought, asks questions about the role of science, progress and values in society. Her work is an invitation to reflect on the condition of man in a world dominated by technology and consumption.

This book deserves attention due to its thoroughness, systematicity and depth of analysis. Skarga examines with extraordinary precision the thought of Comte and his students, showing both continuations and changes in their approach to positivism. Her work is a valuable source of knowledge for all those interested in the history of philosophy, sociology and social sciences. It is a must-read for students, researchers and all those who want to understand the roots of contemporary European thought.
