Book by Whitfield Peter
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Throughout history people have sought ways in which to 'map' the heavens, often in the form of very beautiful documents. In this highly illustrated book, the author reveals some of the ways in which the structure of the universe has been conceived, explained and depicted. With examples ranging from the Stone Age to the Space Age - ancient observatories, the angelic visions of Dante, images from Copernican revolution, the rationalized heavens of Newton and Flamsteed, through to modern deep space technology - the book offers a challenging exploration of the tension between rigorous scientific knowledge and the continuing search for cause, certainty and harmony in the universe.
Peter Whitfield is an independent scholar and leading expert in map history and exploration. His other books include Charting the Oceans and London: A Life in Maps.
