Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. A universe once believed to revolve around Earth began to change through observation, mathematics, experiment, and bold new questions. The Scientific Revolution transformed humanity's understanding of nature. Nicolaus Copernicus placed the Sun at the center of the planetary system. Tycho Brahe recorded the heavens with unmatched precision. Johannes Kepler uncovered the true paths of the planets, while Galileo used the telescope to reveal mountains on the Moon, moons around Jupiter, and a sky far different from the one described by ancient authorities. The transformation continued through the experimental ideas of Francis Bacon, the mechanical philosophy of Rene Descartes, the investigations of Robert Boyle and Robert Hooke, and the mathematical achievements of Christiaan Huygens. Their work created new ways to examine matter, motion, air, light, instruments, and the hidden laws of nature. Isaac Newton brought many of these developments together through his laws of motion and universal gravitation. Falling objects, orbiting moons, planetary paths, ocean tides, and returning comets could now be understood within one mathematical system. The History of Science and Human Knowledge: The Scientific Revolution and the Birth of Modern Science presents the people, debates, experiments, institutions, and global exchanges that shaped modern scientific thought. It also examines the relationship between science and religion, the rise of scientific societies, the influence of craftsmen and instrument makers, and the wider political and cultural world in which knowledge developed. Clear historical explanations and engaging human stories reveal how the study of nature moved from inherited authority toward evidence, measurement, experimentation, and mathematical law. The result was a new understanding of Earth, the heavens, and humanity's place within creation. This item is printed on demand.
