Part B of Planetary Astronomy from the Renaissance to the Rise of Astrophysics continues the history of celestial mechanics and observational discovery through the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It provides a synoptic view of the main developments and furnishes details about the lives ideas and interactions of the various astronomers involved. Twelve different authors have contributed their expertise to this book that begins with the reception of Newton's inverse-square law. In the remainder a large place is given to the development of the mathematical theory of celestial mechanics from Clairaut and Euler to LeVerrier Newcomb Hill and Poincare. This emphasis is balanced by other chapters on observational discoveries and the rapprochement of observation and theory for instance the discovery of Uranus and the asteroids use of Venus transits to refine solar parallax introduction of the method of least squares and the development of planetary and satellite ephemerides. Lists of "Further Reading" provide entry to the literature of the several topics. This book will be of great interest to historians of science and astronomers." TABLE OF CONTENTS: Part V.
