Artisan/Practitioners and the Rise of the New Sciences, 1400-1600
Angebote / Angebote:
Provides the historical background for a central issue in the history of science: the influence of artisans, craftsmen, and other practitioners on the emergent empirical methodologies that characterised the 'new sciences' of the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It offers a coherent account and critical revision of the 'Zilsel thesis', an influential etiological narrative which argues that such craftsmen were instrumental in bringing about the 'Scientific Revolution'.
