God and Nature: Historical Essays on the Encounter Between Christianity and Science
ISBN: 9780520056923 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 516 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since the publication in 1896 of Andrew Dickson White's classic History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom, no comprehensive history of the subject has appeared in the English language. Although many twentieth-century historians have written on the relationship between Christianity and science, and in the process have called into question many of White's conclusions, the image of warfare lingers in the public mind. To provide an up-to-date alternative, based on the best available scholarship and written in nontechnical language, the editors of this volume have...

ISBN: 9780226482057 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When it was first published in 1992, The Beginnings of Western Science was lauded as the first successful attempt ever to present a unified account of both ancient and medieval science in a single volume.

Lindberg surveyed all the most important themes in the history of science, including developments in cosmology, astronomy, mechanics, optics, alchemy, natural history, and medicine.

Although the book is definitive, it is also introductory, for the authors have directed their chapters to a beginning audience of diverse readers, including undergraduates, scholars specializing in other fields,...

Theories of Vision from Al-Kindi to Kepler
ISBN: 9780226482354 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 331 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Kepler's successful solution to the problem of vision early in the seventeenth century was a theoretical triumph as significant as many of the more celebrated developments of the scientific revolution. Yet the full import of Kepler's arguments can be grasped only when they are viewed against the background of ancient, medieval, and Renaissance visual theory. David C. Lindberg provides this background, and in doing so he fills the gap in historical scholarship and constructs a model for tracing the development of scientific ideas. David C. Lindberg is professor and chairman of the...

This study treats each major taxon and supplies general information as well as overviews of evolution and phylogeny using data from...
