{"product_id":"john-wallis-david-cram-9780754668701","title":"John Wallis: Writings on Music","description":"John Wallis (1616-1703), was one of the foremost British mathematicians of the seventeenth century, and is also remembered for his important writings on grammar and logic. An interest in music theory led him to produce translations into Latin of three ancient Greek texts - those of Ptolemy, Porphyry and Bryennius - and involved him in discussions with Henry Oldenburg, the Secretary of the Royal Society, Thomas Salmon and other individuals as his ideas developed. The texts presented in this volume cover the relationship of ancient and modern tuning theory, the building of organs, the phenomena of resonance, and other musical topics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Cram\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0754668703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780754668701\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"David Cram","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086820880639,"sku":"9780754668701","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3ee1e4d0-95c2-4225-a3ae-cb64de61e063.jpg?v=1769096773","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-wallis-david-cram-9780754668701","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
