Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Good William P. D. Wightman's wide-ranging history of the development of scientific thought, tracing several of the dominant ideas that shaped science from antiquity through the modern period. Rather than presenting discovery as a simple procession of dates and famous names, Wightman examines how scientific concepts emerged, interacted, and gradually changed humanity's understanding of the natural world. Illustrated throughout in black and white, including a reproduced title page from Giovanni Alfonso Borelli's seventeenth-century De Motu Animalium. The volume comprises x, 495 pages. Wightman was a historian and philosopher of science whose work became part of the developing academic discipline of the history of science during the mid-twentieth century. The book is described bibliographically as a guide to the development of scientific thought through selected dominant ideas. Condition: Good.
