Publisher's Synopsis
""Nature And The Living Worlds According To Giordano Bruno"" by J. Lewis McIntyre is a comprehensive exploration of the philosophical and scientific ideas of the Italian philosopher Giordano Bruno. Bruno was a controversial figure in his time, and his ideas about the nature of the universe and the living world were considered heretical by the Catholic Church. McIntyre delves into Bruno's theories about the infinite universe, the plurality of worlds, and the interconnectedness of all living things. He also examines Bruno's views on the relationship between science and religion, and the role of the human mind in understanding the natural world. Throughout the book, McIntyre draws connections between Bruno's ideas and those of other philosophers and scientists, such as Galileo and Descartes. He also provides historical context for Bruno's work, discussing the political and religious climate of 16th-century Europe. Overall, ""Nature And The Living Worlds According To Giordano Bruno"" offers a fascinating look at the ideas of one of history's most controversial thinkers, and sheds light on the ongoing debate between science and religion.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Giordano Bruno, by J.
