Mary Gregory is a scholar of the French Enlightenment. For the past ten years she has been researching Diderot's views regarding the metamorphosis of species in four of his texts, namely, the Pensées philosophiques (1746), the Lettre sur les aveugles à l'usage de ceux qui voient (1749), the Pensées sur l'interprétation de la nature (1753), and the trilogy, the Entretien entre d'Alembert et Diderot (1769), the Rêve de d'Alembert (1769), and the Suite de l'Entretien (1769).
