The Growth of Physical Science is a detailed but very accessible
survey of what began as natural philosophy and culminated in the
mid-twentieth century as quantum physical science. From the
earliest physical investigations of nature made by the various
civilisations of Babylonia, Phoenicia and Egypt (a period covering
5000 600 BC), through the remarkable mathematical and philosophical
achievements of the ancient Greeks, to the ages of Newton and then
Einstein, Rutherford and Bohr, Jeans has written a comprehensive
history of this tremendous advancement in our understanding of the
universe, one that will appeal to a broad range of readers
interested in this subject.
