Professor rigorous didactic simplifications little friend, not have it easy with Giannini cadets. But thanks to that Spanish artillery went from being a weapon based on empiricism and military engineers dependent on theoretical lessons become a weapon based on the best science. Indirectly, this book helps us to understand how European science came in the last quarter of the eighteenth century in abundance Segovia.
