Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explains the science of measuring time. Time is the duration of anything, including thoughts, events, and even ourselves. Time is measured in divisions such as days, hours, seconds, years, etc. By studying astronomy, we can measure time. The book goes into detail on how celestial bodies, particularly the sun and stars, can be reliable sources for timekeeping. The book discusses the history of different timekeeping methods, including the origins of our months and years, and also looks at different calendars, including the Gregorian calendar, the most widely used calendar of the present day. The book explains how to use the knowledge of these celestial bodies to calculate the day of the week and even the date of Easter, which is an important calculation for the Christian church. This book is a comprehensive guide to time and how we measure its passing, providing significant insights into the history and development of calendars and timekeeping methods.
