Omschrijving

""Thomas Hariot"" by Henry Stevens is a biography of the English mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher Thomas Hariot. The book covers Hariot's life and achievements, including his work as a member of Sir Walter Raleigh's expeditions to the New World, his contributions to the development of algebra and trigonometry, and his observations of the moon and stars. The author also delves into Hariot's personal life, including his relationships with other scholars and his struggles with illness. The book is a comprehensive look at the life and legacy of one of England's most important scientific minds.COLLECTORS OF RARE English books always speak reverently and even mysteriously of the 'quarto Hariot' as they do of the 'first folio.' It is given to but few of them ever to touch or to see it, for not more than seven copies are at present known to exist. Even four of these are locked up in public libraries, whence they are never likely to pass into private hands.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
