A fascinating biography of one of the finest renaissance minds. Huygens was a polymath almost without equal, credited with discovering the rings of Saturn, the moon Titan, the invention of the pendulum clock and groundbreaking studies on optics and centrifugal forces, this study goes beyond these discoveries to find out more about the man and what made him strive to know more. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
