ISBN10: 0521035376, ISBN13: 9780521035378, [publisher: Cambridge University Press] Softcover Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This translation of an ancient Chinese book on astronomy (which is believed to date back to the first century AD) provides the non-specialist with a lucid account of how Chinese astronomers did their work in ancient times. The book also shows how the Chinese imperial government made use of and supported the work of astronomers, and explores the links between astronomy and politics. It will be of equal interest to historians of science and those studying the history of Chinese culture.
