    PDF/EPUB Violet Moller ↠ PDF/EPUB The Map of Knowledge MOBI ☆ The Map ePUB é ↠ rildem.co knowledge ebok, The Map kindle, The Map of Knowledge ePUBThis book is an interesting discussion of how classical ideas made their way through history It follows the writings of three Ancient Greek scientists Ptolemy Euclid and Galen from their inception in Antiuity to their dissemination through the printing press in the 15th Century via seven selected cities As a result this book is a fusion of pure history and a history of ideas Moller discusses both the fortunes of the seven cities she has chosen for example the rise of Palermo under the Normans and the fortunes of the ideas themselves for example the decline in Galenic medicine during the Renaissance The result is a decent survey of aspects of Ancient Greek thought and Medieval history Moller is strong on her discussion of the interplay between Arabic and Christian centres of learning and the complex relationships b

    PDF/EPUB Violet Moller ↠ PDF/EPUB The Map of Knowledge MOBI ☆ The Map ePUB é ↠ rildem.co knowledge ebok, The Map kindle, The Map of Knowledge ePUBIn The Map of Knowledge Violet Moller traces the transmission of knowledge from the ancient Mediterranean via the Abbasid and Umayyad caliphates and centuries of scholars and translators from 500 CE to the European Renaissance This summary might sound a little dry but Moller’s semi conversational style and the content made her overview of a thousand years of history highly readable Outside of academia I don’t know that many people know how much of a debt we Westerners owe to the ancient world The ancient Greek and Graeco Egyptian scholars gave us again Westerners our start on the scientific method philosophy geometry medicine and so many other topics We would have lost so much if it hadn’t been for medieval Arab scholars and translators At the same time however I lament what we lost anyway to time and deliberate destruction Read the rest of my review at A Bookish Type I received a free copy of this book
