Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Spot to edge. Contemporary signature of Hannaway on front end page, else unmarked. 288 pages, diagrams, 18 cm. "A picture of the physical world as seen by the Ancient Greeks is the subject of this book. It spans many centuries, from the sixth B.C. till the second A.D., and includes quotations from the writings of Greek and Roman philosophers and men of science. A comparison of the Greek cosmos with our own reveals a striking parallel between the patterns of thought in all that concerns scientific associations and inferences, the construction of analogies and models, and the analysis of the epistemological background." Caroline Hannaway was a historian of medicine with close ties to the Johns Hopkins Departments of History of Medicine and History of Science and Technology. …

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. En su estudio clásico del pensamiento científico de los griegos, Sambursky presenta las ideas relativas a lo que acabaría convirtiéndose en el campo de la física. Selecciona las áreas temáticas más interesantes para la visión moderna del mundo físico las especulaciones cosmológicas de los primeros filósofos jonios, así como la formulación de los modelos discontinuistas de la materia, debidos a los atomistas, y las especulaciones continuistas de los estoicos, sin incurrir por ello en anacronismos o simplificaciones retrospectivas y haciendo gala de un conocimiento de primer orden de las fuentes griegas. Su objetivo es mostrar qué pensaban los griegos del universo, su lugar en él, la semejanza con la ciencia moderna y porqué los procesos teóricos griegos les impidieron realizar los tremendos avances que se produjeron en el siglo XVII. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Condizione: Gut. 255 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Altersbedingt vergilbt, sonst guter Zustand / Yellowed due to age, otherweise in good condition. - PREFACE THIS book, apart from some minor changes, is a translation from the Hebrew edition which was published in 1954 by the Bialik Institute, Jerusalem. It is not a history of science in Ancient Greece. As a physicist, I have been especially interested in the way the Greeks saw and interpreted the physical world around them. The texts I selected and translated in the course of my studies formed a frame into which these chapters were fitted as a kind of commentary or marginal note. To the scientist of to-day, Greek science as revealed by these sources presents a fascinating picture: on the one hand, there is a striking similarity between its patterns of thought and ours in all that concerns scientific associations and inferences, the construction of analogies and models, and the analysis of the epistemological background. On the other hand, while we attempt to transform the world into an abstract mathematical entity which transgresses the boundaries of the inorganic universe and infiltrates into biology and the realm of man, the Greeks saw the cosmos as a living organism, as a projection of man into the distances of the outer world. It is mainly for this reason that they were unable to visualize themselves in the Archimedean position outside the cosmos and to regard it as an object of analysis. This analysis (or dissection of nature, as Bacon called it) necessarily must proceed by unnatural methods such as systematic experimentation and mathematization of physical concepts. Thus the Greeks, while originating the scientific approach and thereby laying the foundation of our cosmos, were prevented, for a period of a thousand years, from making the rapid progress that came about in a few decades of the seventeenth century. From this time on, a picture of the cosmos evolved that must be set against the background of a civilization based on an interplay of science and technology, while the cosmos of the Greeks emerged from a world whose scientific curiosity remained untouched by any desire to conquer nature.
