The assembly of molecules into supramolecular architectures is influenced by various triggers such as light, temperature, pH, and chemical signals. Recently, researchers have found that chemical fuels can induce molecules to self-assemble into alternate structures, depending on the chirality of these fuels. This may help explain the origins of homochirality in life—especially within peptides and […]

In the seventeenth century, the evolution of natural philosophy was greatly supported by the progress of mathematical fields surpassing the supremacy of Euclidean geometry. Medieval universities provided minimal mathematical instruction, concentrating on basic texts and frequently not advancing beyond the fundamentals of Euclid’s “Elements.” Nonetheless, by the seventeenth century, novel mathematical realms such as algebra, […]

In his publication, “The History of the Barometer” (The Johns Hopkins Press, 1964), W. E. Knowles Middleton elaborates on the relationship between Isaac Beeckman (1588–1637) and René Descartes (1596–1650), indicating that their association ultimately resulted in a dispute. Middleton characterizes Descartes as a thinker whose notions regarding physics have mostly been proven erroneous, a stern […]

This article stands as a contemplation on a prior social media reply concerning Jim Al-Khalili’s work, “The House of Wisdom: How Arabic Science Saved Ancient Knowledge and Gave Us the Renaissance.” Al-Khalili, a notable broadcaster celebrated for his capacity to convey contemporary science to the general public, appears to lack authority in the realm of […]

Some time ago, I authored a piece about [the engraver and instrument creator Augustine Ryther (fl. 1576–1593)](https://thonyc.wordpress.com/2025/02/26/an-engraver-and-instrument-maker-who-founded-a-dynasty/), who initiated a lineage of instrument artisans within the Worshipful Company of Grocers. More recently, I discussed [the navigator and maritime atlas writer Sir Robert Dudley (1574–1649)](https://thonyc.wordpress.com/2025/07/23/the-english-aristocratic-bastard-who-advised-the-florentines-on-matters-nautical-and-published-the-first-maritime-atlas-by-an-english-author/), who, after dedicating many years to the Republic of Florence as […]

When Isaac Beeckman (1588–1637) was familiarizing the young René Descartes with mathematical physics in Breda in 1618, he assigned him exercises to aid in developing his proficiency in this emerging field. One such exercise involved deriving the hydrostatic paradox, which was first introduced by Simon Stevin (1548–1620) in his De Beghinselen des Waterwichts (Principles on […]

A thought-provoking concept emerges from the dense forests. Recent modeling indicates that the fear of supernatural retribution, akin to that depicted in tales of forest guardians and river deities, may dissuade individuals from polluting shared natural assets. This research, spearheaded by Assistant Professor Shota Shibasaki from Doshisha University and published on October 15, 2025, in […]
