Like an elegant picture album of the history of science, The Scientific Image: from Cale to Computer charts the efforts of professionals and amateurs to represent their obsenations of natural phenomena through illustrations. It is a celebration of the insatiable curiosity and the desire to explain which are the t-,vin inspirations of scientific discovery. The images author Harry Robin has assembled here range from the skv charts of the ancient Siberian Chukchis to NASA's most sophisticated computer imagen,. Included are illustrative works from the bestknown names in science-Einstein, Newton, Gallileo, da Vinci, Ben Franklin, Darwin, Edison, Watson and Crick-as well as ingenius creations from obscure sources. Throughout, insightful commentary describes each image in its context.

paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
