«El espectro de Demócrito: Atomismo, disidencia y libertad de pensar en los orígenes de la ciencia moderna» is an essay by Pedro de la Llosa in paperback.
It traces the history of atomism up to the nineteenth century, when the scientific revolution still had to make its way among alchemy, astrology and theology. It analyses the corpuscular philosophy of Boyle and Newton and the scientific atomism from Proust to Cannizzaro. It relates that doctrine to freedom of thought and dissent in modern Europe.
It belongs to the collection «La estrella polar», number 19. First edition published by Ediciones del Serbal in 2000.
For readers of history of science, philosophy and epistemology.
