Soft cover. Etat : Good. Edwin Arthur Burtt's important study of the philosophical and metaphysical assumptions underlying the rise of modern physical science. Burtt examines the transformation from the medieval conception of the universe to the modern scientific worldview through the work of Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, Hobbes, Gilbert, Boyle, Newton, and their contemporaries. Originally issued in this revised form as Doubleday Anchor Book A41, the work combines intellectual history with philosophy of science, examining not simply the discoveries of the Scientific Revolution but the assumptions about matter, motion, space, causality, and man's place in the universe that accompanied them.
