Adversaries of Astrology is a comprehensive historical account of the opposition to astrology throughout the ages. Written by Lynn Thorndike, a renowned historian of science, the book traces the development of anti-astrology arguments from ancient Greece to the modern era. Thorndike examines the various criticisms and objections raised against astrology, including religious, philosophical, and scientific objections. The book also explores the cultural and social factors that have contributed to the opposition to astrology, such as the rise of rationalism and the decline of religious authority. Through a careful analysis of primary sources and historical documents, Adversaries of Astrology offers a fascinating insight into the complex relationship between astrology and its detractors. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of science, the occult, and the cultural and intellectual trends that have shaped our world.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The History of Magic and Experimental Science Part 10, by Lynn Thorndike.
