Map of Knowledge - How Classical Ideas Were Lost and Found: A History in Seven Cities (Moller Violet)(Pevná vazba)

In The Map of Knowledge Violet Moller traces the journey taken by the ideas of three of the greatest scientists of antiquity - Euclid, Galen and Ptolemy - through seven cities and over a thousand years. In it, we follow them from sixth-century Alexandria to ninth-century Baghdad, from Muslim Cordoba to Catholic Toledo, from Salerno's medieval medical school to Palermo, capital of Sicily's vibrant mix of cultures, and - finally - to Venice, where that great merchant city's printing presses would enable Euclid's geometry, Ptolemy's system of the stars and Galen's vast body of writings on The Map of Knowledge - Violet Moller od authora Violet Moller a nakladatelství za skvělé ceny na e-shopu Martinus.cz
