Introduction: Practical Mathematics, Practical Mathematicians, and the Case for Transforming the Sthe role of mathematical practice in the scientific revolution in four ways. First, it demonstrates the variability of practical mathematicians and of their practices. Second, it argues that in spite of this variability, participants were able to recognize the family resemblance between the different

Mathematics for Sale: Mathematical Practitioners, Instrument Makers, and Communities of Scholars in 0 and 1630. She thus discovers a vibrant practical mathematical community, whose members were gentry, scholars, merchants, instrument-makers, and navigators. This rich mathematical exchange laid the groundwork for the natural philosophical sociability of the seventeenth century. These early mathemat

The Making of Practical Optics: Mathematical Practitioners’ Appropriation of Optical Knowledge Betwefferent in the presentation of their shared knowledge. Ausonio’s practical optics, which aimed at the design of an instrument by offering a theoric, is contrasted with Bourne’s project for the making of a telescope, which lacked any attempt at a theoric. The essay shows that, rather than as an estab
