Edited by R. Harré, the volume chronicles the lives and contributions of figures such as Galileo, Harvey, van Helmont, and others who laid the groundwork for modern science through bold observation, experimentation, and reason. Each chapter details the methods, discoveries, and intellectual contexts of these revolutionary minds, illustrating how their work broke decisively from medieval scholasticism and established empirical inquiry as the cornerstone of scientific practice. Written with academic rigor yet remaining accessible to the engaged general reader, the collection argues that the seventeenth century was not merely a period of incremental progress but a genuine revolution in thought that continues to define scientific methodology to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48826073612507,"sku":"2026770000513-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/6bc8eb5f-b428-4760-95c6-3f19b5638fe7.png?v=1780312056","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770000513-secondhand-early-seventeenth-century-scientists","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
