In Search of Planet Vulcan: The Ghost in Newton's Clockwork Universe
Description:
Follows the exploits of Le Verrier (Director of the Paris Observatory early in the 19th century) and later of his followers in pursuit of his obsession with extending the universality of Newton's Laws, proving the planet Vulcan's existence, and securing his place in history as one of the greatest astronomers of his time all for naught, as history would have it.
