The series is now in its second edition and contains 60 volumes. Volume 38 served the history and philosophy of Edward Gibbon, an English historian and Member of Parliament with his most important work, The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. The History is known principally for the quality and irony of its prose, its use of primary sources, and its open denigration of organized religion, though the extent of this is disputed by some critics.
