Michael Cyril William Hunter FBA FRHistS (born 1949) is emeritus professor of history in the department of history, classics and archaeology[2] and a fellow[1] of Birkbeck, University of London. Hunter is interested in the culture of early modern England. He specialises in the history of science in seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century England, particularly the work of Robert Boyle.[2] In Noel Malcolm's judgement, Hunter "has done more for Boyle studies than anyone before him (or, one might almost say, than all previous Boyle scholars put together)".[3]
