Newton's Forgotten Lunar Theory

His Contribution to the Quest for Longitude

AvNicholas Kollerstrom

Inbunden, Engelska, 2000

471 kr

Tillfälligt slut

Newton's lunar theory of 1702 turns out to have been the basis for numerous eighteenth century tables, and was used in China well into the twentieth century. It was taken into the "Principia" of 1713, with one important correction. Combining historical research with computer analysis, this title investigates questions about the lunar theory.

Presents Faraday's work on electricity and magnetism over almost a quarter of a century. This title argues for a radically experimental approach to nature, in the course of which he evolves many of the concepts and terms that have come to be fundamental to our understanding of electricity.

Tillfälligt slut
