Description

In this book, the author examines Grosseteste's philosophical contribution and discusses his views on a wide range of topics--light and optics; the mathematical laws governing the movement of bodies; God, the mathematical Creator; the angels; human knowledge, certitude, observation and experience; religious symbolism and its interpretation; and the place of man within the social, natural, historical and providential orders.
