Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book deepens our collective understanding of the history of mathematics and physical science through the lens of the life and work of a renowned 17th-century Italian scientist. The text is structured around the author's extensive research into the scientist's personal and professional papers, along with other contemporary archival materials. Secondary source bibliographies are extensively cited to provide context regarding the broader social, cultural, and political climate of the time. The author has organized the book in a way that moves thematically through the areas of experimentation and then theory in science, particularly in relation to the scientist's contributions to the scientific method and early calculus. This book's insights enrich our grasp of the development of science during the Scientific Revolution and provide a better look at the era's intellectual backdrop.
