""The Invisible Code" is a carefully researched and methodologically ambitious work. Professor Reddy gives us a great deal to think about through his vivid accounts of marital conflict, journalistic confrontations, and workplace humiliation in Balzac's Paris: He argues convincingly that the records of these "ordinary" dramas can give the attentive historian access to the feelings of those involved, and that those feelings are fodder for historical analysis.
