Description

Author: Margery Purver
Publisher: Routledge & Kegan Paul
Condition: Hardcover with dust jacket, foxing on dust jacket and first few pages, interior clean
Originally published in 1967. The origin of the Royal Society has long been obscured by baffling discrepancies in the evidence. This volume investigates its underlying purpose and creation, at the same time uncovering the real nature of its debt to Francis Bacon and its role in the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century.
