• Introduction; Part I. Origins and Influences: 1. The composition history of Jefferson's Notes; 2. The formal structure of Jefferson's Notes; Part II. Interpretation: 3. Reading the Notes, part I nature; 4. Reading the Notes, part II cautious philosophy; 5. Reading the Notes, part III peoples and constitutions; 6. Reading the Notes, part IV Republican reforms; Part III. Publication and Reception: 7. The publication history of Jefferson's Notes; 8. Jefferson, Adams, and the view of rebellion from abroad; 9. Jefferson, Madison, and Republican constitutionalism; Conclusion.

'Gish and Klinghard make their case thoroughly, drawing on in-depth knowledge of the scholarship on Notes, Enlightenment science and scientific polemics, and the political history of the United States in the years they say constitute the book's political biography. The benefit of their serious, thoughtful, imaginative scholarship becomes evident in the culminating section on Jefferson and Madison, perhaps the most thought provoking and thus rewarding section of the book.'
