Seller's Description:
VG (Slight wear to dj edges; dj is scuffed a bit and is corner clipped, and front of dj has a white removed label mark; book is otherwise clean. ) Black cloth, gilt letters on spine, olive dust jacket, 778 pp., no illus.; weighs 4 lbs. Text is in French and English. "The work of many scholars has placed beyond dispute the outstanding importance of Nicole Oresme, fourteenth-century French Scholastic, in the history of late medieval science. Oresme's last major scientific treatise, Le Livre du ciel et du monde, completed in 1377, is especially significant, affording as it does a clear and cogent synthesis of later medieval ideas in natural philosophy, presented in the running commentary that accompanies Oresme's version of Aristotle's De caelo, the earliest in French. This edition makes available for the first time the complete text of Le Livre du ciel et du monde with a paralled English translation." (dj).
A very good edition, for a rather rare english translation of a masterpiece of medieval science, enriched with deep and valuable notes throughout the book.
