Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides an thorough examination of the science of geography at the time of its writing around the end of the 18th century. The author begins by introducing early mappings, focusing on the Greek Anaximander's 6th-century-BCE creation, which is the oldest surviving attempt at a world map. From there, the author walks the reader through major developments in astronomy and philosophy, which intertwined with geography and improved the science. Learn about the theories of Pythagoras and Claudius Ptolemy, and how their heliocentric and geocentric models of the solar system influenced the way ancient civilizations perceived their place in the universe. The author traces the evolution of astronomy through the work of Tycho Brahe and his creation of a model that placed the sun at the center of a rotating solar system. A thorough overview of the groundbreaking work of Nicolaus Copernicus will show you how this astronomer's ideas laid the groundwork for the discoveries of Galileo and Johannes Kepler. Readers will also find in-depth treatments of the work on planetary motion and orbits in the 17th century by Sir Isaac Newton. This book is an important read for anyone interested in the history of science and the evolution of ideas.
