Behrendt -- Kongo and Dahomey, 1660-1815 : African political leadership in the era of the slave trade and its impact on the formation of African identity in Brazil / Linda M. Heywood, John K. Thornton -- The triumphs of Mercury : connection and control in the emerging Atlantic economy / David J. Hancock -- Inter-imperial smuggling in the Americas, 1600-1800 / Wim Klooster -- Procurators and the making of the Jesuits' Atlantic network / J. Gabriel Martínez-Serna -- Dissenting religious communication networks and European migration, 1660-1710 / Rosalind J. Beiler -- Typology in the Atlantic world : early modern readings of colonization / Jorge Cañizares-Esguerra -- A courier between empires : Hipólito da Costa and the Atlantic world / Neil Safier -- Scientific exchange in the eighteenth-century Atlantic world / Londa Schiebinger -- Theopolis Americana : the city-state of Boston, the republic of letters, and the Protestant international, 1689-1739 / Mark A.

Drawn together in a comprehensive Introduction by Bernard Bailyn, these innovative essays include analyses of the climate and ecology that underlay the slave trade, pan-Atlantic networks of religion and commerce, as well as the inter-ethnic collaboration in the development of tropical medicine, science as a product of imperial relations, and the awareness of the Atlantic world in the mind of David Hume.
