Galileo: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780192854568 Author(s): Stillman Drake 出版社 Oxford University Press Galileo is the best known figure in the history of astronomy -- known for his insistence that the sun, rather than the earth, is the centre of the solar system, and for being the first person to use a telescope to observe the heavens
His work was also of huge importance in providing the basis for modern physics
Stillman Drake was one of the most important authorities on Galileo's work, and translated many of his scientific writings
Controversial views about the causes of Galileo's trial and condemnation by the Inquisition
First published in the Past Masters series, where it sold 13,000 copies
In a startling reinterpretation of the evidence, Stillman Drake advances the hypothesis that Galileo's trial and condemnation by the Inquisition was caused not by his defiance of the Church, but by the hostility of contemporary philosophers.
Galileo's own beautifully lucid arguments are used to show how his scientific method was utterly divorced from the Aristotelian approach to physics in that it was based on a search not for causes but for laws. Galileo's method was of overwhelming significance for the development of modern physics, and led to a final parting of the ways between science and philosophy.oxford university press oup オックスフォード オックスフォードユニバーシティプレス オックスフォード大学出版局 その他 More english language products 英語教材商品 reference linguistics teacher resource books 文法言語学教師用指導書 other reference oxford very short introductions series vsiこの商品を買った人は、こんな商品も買いました
