Science in a Renaissance Society
註釋A historical study of the interrelations of science and society from c.1450 to c.1620. Printing, medicine, and the discovery of the New World are considered against a background of political and religious change. The final chapters emphasize the influence of 'quantification', the concern with natural magic, and the psychological motivation of such leading figures in the so-called Scientific Revolution as Kepler, Gilbert and Bacon.
