There will be a 1-minute interval in between lots closing. 5 minutes will get added to the clock when a bid is received within 5 minutes of the lot ending.
This book traces the development of astronomy as a scientific discipline through profiles of Ptolemy, Copernicus, Brahe, Kepler, Galileo, Newton, and Herschel. After an introduction to the beginnings of science, each successive chapter is devoted to the work of one man. The easy-to-read, interesting text occupies about two-thirds of the page. The wide margins include additional biographical or astronomical information and definitions of relevant terms. Plentiful black-and-white photographs.
