Kings Dethroned: A History Of The Evolution Of Astronomy From The Time Of The Roman Empire Up To The Present Day (1922)

""Kings Dethroned"" is a historical account of the evolution of astronomy from the Roman Empire to the present day, written by Gerrard Hickson and first published in 1922. The book explores the gradual displacement of traditional astronomical beliefs and practices by scientific methods and theories, tracing the development of astronomy through the ages and the key figures who contributed to its progress. Hickson challenges the established views of his time, arguing that many of the most commonly accepted astronomical theories were flawed and that the true nature of the universe was far more complex and mysterious than previously thought. He also examines the role of politics, religion, and other societal factors in shaping the evolution of astronomy, providing a comprehensive and thought-provoking account of this fascinating field of study. Overall, ""Kings Dethroned"" is a compelling and insightful exploration of the history of astronomy and the ongoing quest to understand the mysteries of the universe.Showing It To Be An Amazing Series Of Blunders Founded Upon An Error Made In The Second Century B.C.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
