Merak Çağı on sekizinci yüzyılın sonunda Britanya’yı kasıp kavuran ve bilime Romantik bir ufuk açan İkinci Bilimsel Devrime dair bir anlatı.On yedinci yüzyılda gerçekleşmiş olan Birinci Bilim Devrimi çoğunlukla Newton, Hooke, Locke ve Descartes’la ve Londra’da Kraliyet Cemiyeti’nin, Paris’te de Bilimler Akademisi’nin neredeyse aynı zamanda kuruluşuyla bağdaştırılır. İkinci devrim ise öncelikle astronomi ve kimya alanlarındaki bir dizi büyük buluştan ilham almıştı. On sekizinci yüzyıl Aydınlanma akılcılığından doğan, fakat bilimsel çalışmalara keşif yapma idealini katarak onu dönüştüren bir hareketti.Richard Holmes’un Merak Çağı dediği zaman aralığı simgesel olarak, iki ünlü keşif yolculuğuyla belirlenmiştir. Bunlar, Kaptan James Cook’un Endeavour’la dünyanın çevresini ilk kez dolaştığı yolculuk (1768) ile Charles Darwin’in Beagle’la Galapagos adalarına yaptığı yolculuktur (1831). Astronom William Herschel ve kimyager Humphry Davy bu döneme keşifleriyle damga vurmuştu. Kitapta başka şahsiyetler de yer alıyor; Romantik dönemin ruhuna özgü bilimsel girişimlerden ve balon yolculuğu, keşifler, hayalet avcılığı gibi heyecanlı serüvenlere dair birçok olaydan söz ediliyor.Romantizm genellikle bilimin düşmanı sayılır: Romantik öznellik ile bilimsel nesnellik idealleri birbiriyle bağdaşmaz bir karşıtlık olarak görülür. Richard Holmes durumun her zaman böyle olmadığı ya da bu terimlerin birbirini dışlamadığı görüşünde. Merak kavramının, bir zamanlar öznellik ile nesnelliği birleştirdiğini savunuyor.Richard Holmes, bilim kültürünü sürdürmemizde üç şeye gereksinim duyduğumuza dikkat çekiyor: Kişisel merak duygusu, umudun gücü, dünyanın geleceğine dair canlı ama sorgulayan bir inanç.
