The Invisible World: Early Modern Philosophy and the Invention of the Microscope - Studies in Intellectual History and the History of Philosophy
Catherine Wilson
Focusing on the earliest forays into microscopical research, from 1620 to 1720, this book provides technological history of the knowledge that helped launch philosophy into the modern era. It argues that the discovery of microworld presented metaphysicians with the task of reconciling the ubiquity of life with human-centered theological systems.
