Abstract: | "David Rittenhouse: Philosopher-Mechanick of Colonial Philadelphia and His Famous Clocks brings a completely new focus on the man, as well as his brother Benjamin, and expands the body of knowledge that surrounds these brothers as well as the era in which they lived. Clocks are the principle subject matter, but David Rittenhouse's other work, such as orreries, telescopes, surveying compasses, and other scientific equipment, are addressed as well"-- |
| "Bringing new focus to the life and works of the astronomer, mathematician, surveyor, and inventor David Rittenhouse, this stunning volume surveys his clocks alongside selected other works such as orreries, telescopes, surveying compasses, and other scientific equipment-objects at the intersection of science and art in eighteenth-century America"-- |
