The Renaissance of Science: the Story of the Atom, Mathematics, Astronomy and Physics : Revised 10Th Edition

Ph.D. Albert Martini

Abstract

This is a scientific and historical book in the areas of mathematics, physics and astronomy, which presents the lives and accomplishments of over 200 scientists and how their ideas contributed to the development of our scientific world. The scientific accomplishments are presented chronologically and using over 200 pictures and diagrams to illustrate their logical development. The concepts in mathematics, physics and astronomy are frequently interrelated to justify their usefulness along the centuries of development. This book is essentially a labor of love on the presentation of the magnificent scientists and their fabulous accomplishments responsible for the development of our modern scientific world.
