Atomism and its critics: from Democritus to Newton
Dulles, Va.: Thoemmes Press (1995)
Abstract
A substantial and in-depth study of the history of the atomic theory of matter between the time of Democritus and that of Newton. It is the first to emphasize the continuity of the atomic debate and the debt owed by the seventeenth-century "moderns" to the medieval critique of Aristotle.Author's Profile
