My search for a book covering only Medieval Astronomy history turnes out fruitless, but any book on astronomy history in general should cover Medieval/Rennaisance astronomy in detail. Hope that helps. |

Re: Renaissance/Medieval astronomy
There will be too many search results if I try. I need something specific to search for, and it's not just Galileo & Co, it's the philosophy of science of that time, cosmological theories. It's difficult to find anything reliable. I've allready tried some of this.

Quote:
Here's a book that seems to cover the points above. It discusses the general cultre of the time in addition to or as seen through astronomy, so it might help Mrs. Ganondorf. |
