More about the book

Exploring the intersection of science and superstition, this collection of essays by Pierre Bayle critiques the popular beliefs surrounding the comet that appeared in December 1680. Bayle addresses topics such as astrology and demonology, arguing that comets are natural phenomena rather than omens of disaster or divine signs. His clear and concise writing makes complex ideas accessible, making this work a significant resource for those interested in the history of science, philosophy, and religion. The book also includes a biography of the author.
