Publisher's Synopsis

Swedenborg's Planetary Theory is a book written by Frank W. Very that explores the scientific theories and ideas of the Swedish philosopher and scientist, Emanuel Swedenborg. Swedenborg was a prolific writer and thinker who made significant contributions to many fields, including astronomy, physics, and theology. In this book, Very examines Swedenborg's planetary theory, which was based on his observations of the movements of the planets and stars, as well as his understanding of the laws of physics and mathematics. The book provides a detailed analysis of Swedenborg's theories and ideas, including his belief in a heliocentric solar system and his concept of ""vortex motion"" as a fundamental force in the universe. Very also explores the influence of Swedenborg's ideas on later scientific thinkers, including Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. Overall, Swedenborg's Planetary Theory is a fascinating exploration of one of the most important and influential scientific minds of the 18th century.THIS 100 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Epitome of Swedenborg's Science Part 2, by Frank W.
