Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Fine. 8vo (24 cm), VIII, 152 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (minor shelf-wear). A social history of British astronomy in the age of Newton, examining the lives and working practices of both celebrated and obscure astronomers of the period -- among them Hooke, Halley, Flamsteed, Stephen Gray of Canterbury, and Thomas Brattle of New England. Drawing extensively on the Flamsteed Papers at the Royal Greenwich Observatory and other manuscript sources, Murdin explores how these men obtained funding and equipment, communicated their findings, and competed for recognition. Of interest to historians of science and readers curious about the practical and social world of early modern astronomy.
