It examines the precursors and fundamental milestones of Newton's theory of motion, a geometry of motion since Greek antiquity, the influences of Robert Hooke on Newton's studies on the orbital motion of the planets, and finally, the orbital motion model with a central force inversely proportional to the square of the distance to this centre. By looking at the development of mechanics throughout history, especially with a careful look at epistemological issues, the book highlights the multiple relationships that the mechanical sciences build with other sciences, the economy, and the popular culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47658116153495,"sku":"9783031742866","price":12009.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783031742866.webp?v=1775817122","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/introduction-to-epistemology-of-mechanical-sciences-9783031742866","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
