Bag om Conversations on the Plurality of Worlds

""Conversations On The Plurality Of Worlds"" is a book written by Bernard De Fontenelle in 1686, which explores the idea of the existence of multiple worlds beyond our own. The book is presented as a series of dialogues between a philosopher and a marquise, discussing the possibility of life on other planets and the nature of the universe. This 1803 edition includes notes and a critical account of Fontenelle's writings by an unknown editor. The notes provide additional context and explanations for the ideas presented in the book, while the critical account evaluates Fontenelle's work and its impact on science and philosophy. Overall, ""Conversations On The Plurality Of Worlds"" is a landmark work in the history of science and philosophy, and this edition provides valuable insights into its significance and influence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
