Westman shows that efforts to answer the astrological skeptics became a crucial unifying theme of the early modern scientific movement. His interpretation of this \"long sixteenth century,\" from the 1490's to the 1610's, offers a new framework for understanding the great transformations in natural philosophy in the century that followed."]
