Publisher's Summary

This is a brief introduction of ancient astronomy and how it was practiced before the advent of modern science. The book provides a nice historical perspective on how early thinkers developed theories about the solar system and the cosmos, at large. Excerpted in part from the writings of George Forbes, who was a professor of natural philosophy, at the turn of the 20th century.
