The Quest for the True Figure of the Earth

The Quest for the True Figure of the Earth

Ideas and Expeditions in Four Centuries of Geodesy
Buch (gebunden)210.00 CHF
lieferbar in ca. 10-20 Arbeitstagen

Inhalt

Comprehensively explores the 'Figure of the Earth' controversy in all its several dimensions. This book shows how a largely neglected episode of European science, that produced no spectacular process or artefact - beyond a relatively minor improvement in maps - nevertheless represents a combination of theoretical prediction and empirical method.
