The New Principia: or, True System of Astronomy; In which the earth is proved to be the stationary centre of the solar system, and the sun is shewn to be only 365,006.5 miles from the earth
Description:The New Principia: or, True System of Astronomy. In which the earth is proved to be the stationary centre of the solar system, and the sun is shewn to be only 365,006.5 miles from the earth. Morrison aka Zadkiel, had an early career as a naval hero and made, sometimes successfully, many plans for naval improvements before turning to astrology. His Zadkiel Almanacs were huge, selling tens and hundreds of thousands of copies. His first open defiance of Newtonian physics appeared in 1857 and reached its fullest development in this work, first published in 1868. This didn't sell like his almanacs: "The sale of the first edition of this work has been slow but steady" but the David and Goliath battle against the "monstrous follies" and "mad doctrine" of Newton and his shills must continue. And so it does, armed with but common sense, bellicose language and a set of log tables. But not for much longer. It never reached a third edition and Morrison died in 1874.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
