Excellent
This is one of the best books I have ever read. It is essential reading for anyone interested in 19th century intellectual history and philosophy of history in general. It covers the development of historicism, positivism, and the notion of progress ('ideology' might be better) in 19th century thought. Read Nisbet's "Sociological Tradition" and Raymond Williams's "Culture and Society" as well for a more rounded view. Know your Kant and Hegel if you want to really understand what these books are getting at.
