By Nick Kanas Publisher: Praxis Number Of Pages: 382 Publication Date: 2007-08-24 Sales Rank: 420562 ISBN / ASIN: 0387716688 EAN: 9780387716688 Binding: Paperback Manufacturer: Praxis Studio: Praxis From 1600 to 1800 a number of beautiful star atlases depicting the constellations according to ancient myths and tales were printed. In Europe, where the quality of celestial atlases was unmatched, classical Greek traditions prevailed and the constellations were given allegorical visual representations of heroes and heroines, real and imaginary animals, scientific instruments and artistic tools. These images were placed in celestial latitude and longitude coordinate systems that allowed the positions of the stars to be mapped in the sky and formed the backdrop for predictions of the location of the planets and other heavenly bodies throughout the year. These celestial atlases also contained diagrams of the solar system that reflected both contemporary and ancient cosmological systems, thus tracing the development of man’s view of his place in the universe. With the construction of the International Space Station, and with new plans for manned missions to the Moon, Mars and beyond, there is renewed interest in the heavens. An ever-increasing number of people are fascinated with the science of space and are becoming amateur astronomers. Antiquarian map societies are prospering, and celestial maps are now viewed as a specialty of map collecting. At the same time, the beauty and awe generated by the celestial void captures our imagination and delights our aesthetic sense. This book traces the history of celestial cartography and relates this history to the changing ideas of man’s place in the universe and to advances in map-making. Photographs from actual antiquarian celestial atlases and prints, many previously unpublished, enrich the text, and a legend accompanies each illustration to explain its astronomical and cartographic features. Also included in the book are discussions of non-European celestial maps and chapters on early American influences and celestial map-collecting. password: gigapedia.org http://rapidshare.com/files/60868347/Star_Maps_0387716688.rar |

好资源一定好顶 谢谢分享 看见好多人询问怎么有密码，我怎么下载不了。其实这些都是共享站点，很容易使用，但你要知道他的规则，比如Rapidshare不支持多线程，你就不能使用迅雷多线程下载等。所以只要你知道他们的下载规则，你就知道怎么下载了。 我做了一个Rapidshare、Mihd、Live-share等网盘的下载图解教程，不知道怎么下载的朋友可以到那里学习 http://muchong.com/bbs/viewthread.php?tid=591515&fpage=1 |
