From Galileo to Newton Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The near century (1630-1720) that separates the important astronomical findings of Galileo Galilei  (1564-1642) and the vastly influential mathematical work of Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) represents a pivotal stage of transition in the history of science. Tracing the revolution in physics initiated by Galileo and culminating in Newton's achievements, this book surveys the work of Huygens, Leeuwenhoek, Boyle, Descartes, and others. 35 illustrations.
