Borelli's On the Movement of Animals - On the Natural Motions Resulting from Gravity

En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the mechanics of animal movement, the book explores Borelli's theory, which departs from Aristotelian and Galilean mechanics. It delves into the energy of percussion, detailing its causes, properties, and effects. Borelli provides a comprehensive mechanical explanation of muscle action and examines how an animal's center of gravity shifts during locomotion, addressing critiques from contemporaries like Stephani degli Angeli. This work offers a foundational perspective on biomechanics and the scientific understanding of movement.
