Section 03 is Standard PL Okay

Section 04 is Standard PL Okay

Section 05 is Standard PL Okay

Note: is some places, like Section 03 from 15:01 to 15:35 and most of Section 04 before 10:00, there is a slight, but noticeable hum. It could be just my headphones and in any even is not so distracting as to be of concern.

Greetings -

My regrets for not being able to keep up with the PL'ing of this effort. I am an income tax preparer and things suddenly got hectic around here for a while. It is as if I went into the office one Monday morning and got off work Friday afternoon three weeks later.

No problem. This is, after all, volunteer work.

Welcome Readers!

We have converted this project from solo to collaborative in order to open up Book 2 to all readers.

To make my sales pitch: this work is critical to the development of the scientific method that we now take for granted. It is a Renaissance work, written in Latin (but we are reading a 19th century English translation), but although the Renaissance was a rediscovery of Greco-Roman antiquity, this work represents a turn away from the authority of the past and attempts to re-orient our thinking to a present, close investigation of nature in all its complexity and subtlety. Thus, it sets the stage for the Enlightenment, and indeed, for modern science.

Thank you for contributing!

Alan
