My work focuses on the history of Britain and the British Empire, particularly in the early modern period (loosely defined). My current book is a political and intellectual history of the English East India Company in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. I am also working on or planning projects related to the history of eighteenth-century British overseas exploration and cartography, the historiography of British India, early modern economic thought, and the history of companies and colonization.
