Science Education is one of the great keys to human progress. The series "Basic Books in Science" brings basic knowledge of science within the reach of everyone. Every Book covers in some depth a well defined area, starting from the very beginning and leading up to university entrance level. Printed copies of each Book are available at low cost.This second book in the Series starts with first ideas about the measurement of distance and the relationships among objects in space. It goes back to the work of the philosophers and astronomers of two thousand years ago; and it extends to that of Einstein, whose work laid the foundations for our present-day ideas about the nature of space itself.Contents1.
