While the application of mathematics to the study of the natural world has always been recognized as an important factor, the role of experiment has been less clearly understood. Peter Dear investigates the nature of the change that occurred during this period, focusing particular attention on evolving notions of experience and how these developed into the experimental work that is at the center of modern science. He examines seventeenth-century mathematical sciences-astronomy, optics, and mechanics-not as abstract ideas, but as vital enterprises that involved practices related to both experience and experiment. Dear illuminates how mathematicians and natural philosophers of the period-Mersenne, Descartes, Pascal, Barrow, Newton, Boyle, and the Jesuits-used experience in their argumentation, and how and why these approaches changed over the course of a century. Drawing on mathematical texts and works of natural philosophy from all over Europe, he describes a process of change that was gradual, halting, sometimes contradictory-far from the sharp break with intellectual tradition implied by the term "revolution." 410 0$aScience and its conceptual foundations. 606 $aMathematics$zEurope$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aScience$zEurope$xHistory$y17th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMathematics$xHistory 615 0$aScience$xHistory 676 $a501 686 $aCC 3400$2rvk 700 $aDear$b Peter$f1958-$0887026 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456916403321 996 $aDiscipline & experience$92088707 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01227nam a22002771i 4500 001 991002435909707536 005 20030617103343.0 008 030925s1973 pl a||||||||||||||||ita 035 $ab12288500-39ule_inst 035 $aARCHE-033607$9ExL 040 $aBiblioteca Interfacoltà$bita$cA.t.i.
