'This is an exceptional book, written with a clarity of style which not only reveals the broad ebb and flow of scientific ideas throughout the ages, but also illuminates them by closely focussed images of specific individuals and the inspired ideas which brought about the emerging understanding of the physical world. Olaf Pedersen has presented us with an epitome of classical and scientific scholarship, and for that we should be grateful indeed.' Webb Society Quarterly Journal
' ... recommend to anyone interested in the history of science...' Journal of the British Astronomical Society
A concise exposition of the development of the scientific ideas of the universe from the ancient Greeks until Copernicus paved the way for the modern era in science. The many references to the literature on the subject make it possible to use the book as a guide to a more detailed study.
