Hardcover. Condition: New. In his brief career Anders Celsius (1701-44) made contributions to modern science that stretch beyond his invention of the centigrade scale to measure temperature. From the astronomy and mathematics books - saved as their city burned down - that informed the young Anders' early learning to his death fr…om tuberculosis, Ian Hembrow traces how his discoveries informed our understanding of topics including air pressure, magnetism and sea levels.

Hardback. Condition: New. The Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701-44) was arguably the world's first true Earth scientist. In Celsius: A Life and Death by Degrees, Ian Hembrow reveals what his extraordinary, but tragically short, life and career can teach us about our today and humanity's tomorrow.Our modern understanding of… many of the Earth's most awe-inspiring phenomena owes much to a modest and quietly spoken, eighteenth-century Swedish astronomer, who died of tuberculosis aged just 42. From the Northern Lights, air pressure and magnetism to the shape of the planet, sea levels and early studies of climate change, Celsius unravelled some of the greatest mysteries of his time.Best known for inventing the 100-point 'centi-grade' scale, Celsius' name also now frames humanity's future in the international targets to limit average global temperature increases to no more than 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels. As our world faces this life-or-death struggle, there's much we can learn from Celsius - if we will listen.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Sweden's Enlightenment genius and his lessons for a world in crisis. This is the first, full-length English language biography of Swedish astronomer and Earth science pioneer Professor Anders Celsius. It reveals what his extraordinary but tragically short life and career can teach us about o…ur today and humanity's tomorrow. The book tells how Celsius' study, travels and relationships at the peak of the European Enlightenment helped him to unlock fundamental mysteries of the natural world, and how his life offers vital lessons for now and the future. He was a mercurial thinker who ran out of time, but his discoveries, philosophy and personality still point a hopeful way forward. Best remembered for inventing the Centigrade scale, Celsius' name now frames humanity's future in the international targets to limit average global temperature increases to no more than 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels. As our world faces this life-or-death struggle, there's much we can learn from Celsius. If we will listen. AUTHOR: Ian Hembrow is a former visiting scholar at the Oxford Centre for Life Writing at Wolfson College, University of Oxford. Since 2016 he has worked regularly in Sweden on two books for the WHO's Uppsala Monitoring Centre, which is how he came across the story of Anders Celsius. He began working on the book in 2020 and travelled to the Arctic Circle to retrace the steps of Celsius's 1736-37 expedition to prove the shape of the Earth. In 2023 he published Ralph Edwards: Rare Events with Springer. 30 colour, 70 b/w illustrations Sweden's Enlightenment genius and his lessons for a world in crisis Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
