The 16th and 17th centuries constituted a period of drastic change in the way humanity conceptualized and sought to understand the world. Scholars made massive leaps in fields such as mathematics, astronomy, chemistry, and, perhaps most notably, physics. Arguably, no city contributed more profoundly to that new understanding than Cambridge." https://www.humanprogress.org/centers-of-progress-pt-38-cambridge-physics/ #History #Science #Physics #Cambridge #histodon #histodons @histodon @histodons
