Is the Newtonian Astronomy True? | Free Book
William Carpenter
“Is the Newtonian Theory True?” comprises a series of letters written
by the author to various editors of scientific periodicals attempting
to refute “Newtonian Theory” and other contemporary scientific ideas.
Newtonian Theory refers to Newton's ideas of the laws of motion and
universal gravitation that dominated scientists view of the physical
universe for three centuries. This volume looks at the ideas of Newton
and other historical astronomers while trying to point out
inaccuracies and weaknesses to their arguments. Contents include:
“Globularity”, “Eclipses”, “Gravity”, “The Globe's Motion”,
“Confession of Copernicus”, “Atmospheric Pressure”, “Light”, “Ship on
the Horizon”, “The Higher Criticism”, “Moses and Geologists”, “The
Torah of Moses”, “Geology”, etc. This fascinating volume will appeal
to those with an interest in the developmental of modern scientific
theories and alternative ideas. Many vintage books such as this are
increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are
republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality, modern
edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the
author.
