Starting from Newton's times this follow-up to the author's
Springer book "Our Place in the Universe - Understanding
Fundamental Astronomy from Ancient Discoveries" addresses the
question of "our place in the Universe" from astronomical,
physical, chemical, biological, philosophical and social
perspectives. Using the history of astronomy to illustrate the
process of discovery, the emphasis is on the description of the
process of how we learned and on the exploration of the impacts of
discoveries rather than on the presentation of facts. Thus readers
are informed of the influence of science on a broad scale. Unlike
the traditional way of teaching science, in this book, the author
begins by describing the observations and then discusses various
attempts to find answers (including unsuccessful ones). The goal is
to help students develop a better appreciation of the scientific
process and learn from this process to tackle real-life problems.
