The History of Science and Natural Philosophy among the Croats (With Particular Reference to the Exact Sciences), Volume IV: The Enlightenment and Volume V: The Pre-Revival Age
Abstract
In 2018, Izvori published another two volumes by academician Žarko Dadić, the eminent Croatian historian of science, and author of a score of books and large number of articles and papers on the history of mathematics, physics and astronomy. The new volumes are part of the series The History of Science and Natural Philosophy among the Croats (With Particular Reference to the Exact Sciences), the first volume of which appeared in 2015, and which the author himself describes as his life’s work. In 2018, the series continued with the publication of volumes IV and V (The Enlightenment and The Pre-Revival Age). The books are likely to attract the attention not only of the scientific and expert community, but also of a wider readership, due to the topics covered and periods researched.
