《百科全书，或科学、艺术和工艺详解词典》（），通称《百科全书》（），是1751年至1772年间由一批法国启蒙思想家编撰的一部法语百科全书。共17卷正编，11卷图编，此后其他人多有补编，1780年再版时共有35卷。《百科全书》以启蒙主义为目的，条目常常夹叙夹议、议论时政，造成有时知识的介绍被议论喧宾夺主，从百科全书的角度而言并不能算是一部理想的工具书。

全书由法国的印刷业主布雷顿策划，1751年起由狄德罗主编，1759年起由让·勒朗·达朗贝尔共同主编。参加编纂的主要人员有孟德斯鸠、魁奈、杜尔哥、伏尔泰、卢梭、布丰等不少法国启蒙运动时期的著名人物。他们被称为百科全书派（）。

《百科全书》是启蒙时代思想的代表之作，尽管原计划是翻译1728年英国出版的《百科全書：或藝術與科學通用字典》，它却成为了是历史上第一部致力于科学、艺术的综合性百科全书。正如主编狄德罗所述，《百科全书》的目标是“改变人们的思维方式”。1751年第1卷出版后，就遭到政府与教会的压力，导致有几卷不得不地下发行，最后10卷甚至改用假封面和倒填日期出版。
