Review
This book ties it all together: from "the crumbling Aristotelian paradigm" (without a strong candidate to replace it, despite Galileo's and Descartes' best efforts) in the early 1600s, through Newton to Boltzmann and Maxwell and on to modern fluid dynamics.
Professor Brush is a physicist turned science historian, and it shows in his treatment of his subject.
Clearly written and insightful, it's difficult to put down.
