Synopsis of Längengrad
Längengrad narra la fascinante historia de John Harrison, un relojero escocés que dedicó más de cuarenta años de su vida a resolver el mayor desafío científico de su época: la determinación de la longitud en el mar. En una era donde la navegación dependía de conjeturas y los naufragios eran constantes, Harrison luchó contra el escepticismo de la comunidad científica para perfeccionar un cronómetro capaz de mantener la hora exacta en alta mar. Escrita por Dava Sobel con una prosa lúcida y cautivadora, esta obra se convirtió en un éxito internacional al rescatar del olvido la épica búsqueda de un genio solitario. El libro detalla no solo los avances técnicos, sino también las intrigas políticas y las rivalidades que marcaron uno de los hitos más importantes en la historia de la ciencia y la exploración marítima.
