The result has been that his role in the scientific revolution has been almost totally ignored. He was the first professional scientist worthy of the name, working for the young Royal Society of London as its curator of experiments for four decades. He became the Society’s intellectual center, and for a while its Secretary, roles which led to confrontation with Newton. He made important contributions to pneumatics, mechanics, microscopy, astronomy, and geology, and was partner to Wren in rebuilding London after the Fire. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | | 关键词 | History of Science; Hooke, Robert; Isaac Newton; Micrographia; Robert Boyle; Robert Hooke; Royal Society o | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-0346-0037-8 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-0346-0037-8Series ISSN 1421-6329 Series E-ISSN 2296-6080 | | issn_series | 1421-6329 | | copyright | Birkh�user Basel 2009 |
