""The Fixed Idea of Astronomical Theory"" by August Tischner is a philosophical exploration of the nature of scientific theory and its impact on our understanding of the universe. Tischner argues that the scientific community often becomes fixated on a particular theory, even in the face of evidence that contradicts it, leading to a stagnation of scientific progress. Using the history of astronomy as a case study, Tischner examines the ways in which scientists have clung to outdated models of the cosmos, such as the geocentric view, and the consequences of this fixation. He also considers the role of intuition and creativity in scientific discovery, and the importance of remaining open to new ideas and evidence. This book offers a thought-provoking critique of scientific dogmatism and a call for a more flexible and dynamic approach to scientific inquiry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
