Sinossi
Excerpt from Les Origines de la Statique, Vol. 1
Ces recherches nous avaient amené, de prime abord, a quelques remarques imprévues elles nous avaient prouvé que l'oeuvre de Léonard de Vinci, si riche en idées méca niques nouvelles, n etait point, comme on le supposait commu nément, demeurée inconnue des géomètres de la Renaissance; qu'elle avait été exploitée par maint savant du X Vl siècle, en particulier par Cardan et par Benedetti; qu'elle avait fourni Cardan ses vues si profondes sur la puissance motrice des machines et sur l'impossibilité du mouvement perpétuel. Mais, a partir de Léonard et de Carclan jusqu'à Descartes et a Torricelli, nous avions pu suivre le développement de la Statique sans que la marche de ce déve10ppement nous eût semblé essentiellement différente de celle qu'on lui attribuait communément.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book meticulously chronicles the birth of statics, a scientific discipline that probes the forces acting on stationary objects. The author meticulously traces the evolution of static principles from their humble origins in ancient Greece to their refinement by Renaissance intellectuals. By weaving together the ideas of physics pioneers like Aristotle and Archimedes with the subsequent contributions of medieval scholars and Renaissance polymaths such as Leonardo da Vinci and Jerome Cardan, this book uncovers the gradual development of statics into a cornerstone of scientific inquiry. The author's impressive scholarship sheds light on the profound shift in scientific thought that occurred during this period, as scientists gradually moved away from qualitative explanations towards a more quantitative, mathematical approach to understanding the physical world. By tracing the intellectual lineage of statics, this book illuminates the complex interplay between observation, experimentation, and mathematical reasoning that continues to drive scientific progress today.
