Pendulum : Léon Foucault and the triumph of science / by Aczel, Amir D.(CARDINAL)768191;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 251-264) and index.A stunning discovery in the cellar -- Ancient logic: Bible and inquisition -- Failed experiments with falling bodies-- A science "irregular" in the age of the engineer -- The meridian of Paris -- "Come see the earth turn" -- Mathematical Bedlam -- A new Bonaparte -- The force of Coriolis -- The Panthéon -- The Gyroscope -- The Coup d'État and the second empire -- An unemployed genius -- The observatory physicist -- Final glory -- A premature end -- The defeat at Sedan -- Aftermath.In 1851, struggling, self-taught physicist Lǒn Foucault performed a dramatic demonstration inside the Panthǒn in Paris. By tracking a pendulum's path as it swung repeatedly across the interior of the large ceremonial hall, Foucault offered the first definitive proof -- before an audience that comprised the cream of Parisian society, including the future emperor, Napoleon III -- that the earth revolves on its axis. In this book, Amir Aczel has revealed the life of a gifted physicist who had almost no formal education in science, and yet managed to succeed despite the adversity he suffered at the hands of his peers. Foucault gave us the modern electric compass, devised an electric microscope, invented photographic technology, and made remarkable deductions about color theory, heat waves, and the speed of light. Yet until now so little has been known about his life. Pendulum tells of the illustrious period in France during the Second Empire; of Foucault's relationship with Napoleon III, a colorful character in his own right; and -- most notably -- of the crucial triumph of science over religion.

Pendulum craft : your guide to using, choosing & understanding pendulums / by Taylor, Fox,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Pendulums are a fixture in the metaphysical world. They are tools for decision making, but they can be so much more. Pendulums are a physics equation made magic. Pendulums allow bodies and other realms to communicate through otherwise indiscernible vibrations. These are magical tools that hold massive potential for how to divine information and connect on a deeper level. Pendulum Craft is an expansive, useful guide to using pendulums not just for divination, but for introspection, experimentation, and channeling messages from the beyond. In addition to a deep dive into the history and usage of pendulums--from "water witching" to folk healing, from the science of ideomotor reactions to the pendulum's function as a tool of the occult--author Fox Taylor covers different types of pendulums, including how to make a pendulum or select one at the store. They also cover how to connect with and calibrate a pendulum, how to trust "inner knowing," and finally how to work with a pendulum board and ask the right questions that will produce desired information.
