The Foundations Of Modern Science In The Middle Ages: Their Religious, Institutional and Intellectual Contexts (Cambridge Studies in the History of Science) - Softcover

The Scientific Revolution associated with the names of Galileo and Isaac Newton began in the seventeenth century, but the foundations for that revolution were laid in the late Middle Ages. This 1997 book views the substantive achievements of this period for early modern science within a broad societal and institutional setting that includes Latin translations, Christianity, and the universities.
