The Mosaic Theory of the Solar or Planetary System is a book written by Samuel Pye in 1766. The book provides a detailed description of the solar system and its planets based on the Mosaic theory, which was a popular theory at the time that believed in the literal interpretation of the Bible. Pye argues that the Mosaic theory is consistent with the astronomical observations of the time, and he uses this theory to explain the origin and structure of the solar system. He also discusses the nature of comets, the moon, and the tides, and how they relate to the Mosaic theory.The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both scholars and lay readers. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the scientific and religious beliefs of the 18th century, and it provides insight into the development of astronomy as a discipline.Also Includes A Treatise On Practical Astronomy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
