Description

This scholarly volume from Brill explores the history of early-modern science and medicine through the lens of knowledge transfer between Germany and Scotland. Centered on the life of Duncan Liddel (1561-1613), a mathematician and physician from Aberdeen, the book provides a detailed look at sixteenth-century scholarly life and the networks of polymathy during the Northern European Renaissance. As part of the Scientific and Learned Cultures and Their Institutions series, this work is highly regarded by historians. Rienk Vermij of the University of Oklahoma describes it as a rich and valuable volume that sheds light on both an unknown historical figure and the broader academic landscape of the era. This book is an essential resource for researchers studying the evolution of scientific institutions and the cross-border exchange of ideas in the early modern period.
