		Guldin in 1622 believed that any large body whose center of gravity is not at the center of the universe would, if unimpeded, tend towards the latter.
		In the first volume of his work, Guldin determined the centers of gravity of plane and solid figures and countered attacks made against his earlier work by Niccolò Cabeo in his Philosophia magnetica of 1629 (a copy of which is in the Dibner Library).
		Guldin's volume continues with his work on finding the surfaces and volumes of various solids of revolution, a direct follow-up to the work of Johannes Kepler in his Nova stereometria doliorum vinariorum of 1615 (also in the Dibner Library).

	Paul Guldin, S.J.
		Paul Guldin was born Habakuk Guldin in Saint Gall, Switzerland to a Jewish family and in 1643 died in Gratz.
		Guldin did not know that the fundamental theorem which bears his name and which he used extensively, is found in a somewhat vague form in the Collection of the well-known Greek mathematician Pappus (ca.
		Although Paul Guldin also was the chief critic of Kepler in his use of infinitesimals because of a lack of rigor and mathematical foundation, he was quite devoted to Kepler's studies and well-being.

	Pappus's centroid theorem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pappus's centroid theorem (also known as the Guldinus theorem, Pappus-Guldinus theorem or Pappu's theorem) is the name of two related theorems dealing with the surface areas and volumes of surfaces and solids of revolution.
		The theorem is attributed to Pappus of Alexandria and Paul Guldin.
		The first theorem states that the surface area A of a surface of revolution generated by rotating a plane curve C about an axis external to C and on the same plane is equal to the product of the arc length s of C and the distance d

	Guldin biography
		Paul Guldin was named Habakkuk Guldin at his birth.
		Although of Jewish descent his parents were Protestants but Guldin became a convert to Catholicism at the age of 20 and joined the Jesuit Order.
		Guldin corresponded with Kepler, but on religious topics not mathematics or astronomy.

	BookRags: Paul Guldin Biography
		Guldin's theorem is also known as Pappus's theorem and it was originally written down by Pappus of Alexandria sometime in the fourth century.
		Although Guldin had access to translations of the work of Pappus, and he regularly quoted from them, various historians have shown that they were incomplete and lacked Pappus's theorem.
		Guldin ensured that Kepler had a telescope when Kepler was persecuted for religious reasons and Kepler includes a grateful acknowledgement to Guldin in The Dream which was published posthumously by Kepler's son.

	The Galileo Project
		He was of Jewish descent, but his parents were protestant and he was raised as such.
		But in 1597 he converted to Catholicism and entered the Jesuit order, changing his name from Habakkuk to Paul.
		It is of interest that the order recognized his talents rather late; although he received the full education, he remained a "spiritual coadjutor" and was not admitted to the fourth vow.

	Philosophy of Science at Erratic Impact's Philosophy Research Base
		The author analyzes the evolution of the scientific method from Newton to the present age, claiming that Werner Heisenberg introduced a new scientific method which represents a degeneration of the science's research in the field of Fundamental Physics.
		Paul Feyerabend (b.1924, d.1994), having studied science at the University of Vienna, moved into philosophy for his doctoral thesis, made a name for himself both as an expositor and (later) as a critic of Karl Popper's `critical rationalism', and went on to become one of this century's most famous philosophers of science.
		An imaginative maverick, he became a critic of philosophy of science itself, particularly of `rationalist' attempts to lay down or discover rules of scientific method.

		Both Maurolyco and Commandino were in touch with Christopher Clavius who was, in turn, a mentor of both Paul Guldin and Gregorius Saint Vincent.
		In the next generation Galileo, a direct descendent of the Urbino tradition, became the teacher of Bonaventura Cavalieri, Italy's foremost expert on conic sections in the early seventeenth century.
		The next significant publication was a little known treatise by Paul Pfintzing (1599), originally intended for private distribution among friends.

		Count von Herbersdorf, president of the Bavarian district, succeeded in getting permission for Kepler to hire printers regardless of creed after the Protestants had been expelled from Linz.
		Kepler was assisted to remove the seal of the reformation commission on his library by the Jesuit Father Paul Guldin in Vienna (he wanted to borrow some of the books under seal).
		In Ulm (1626) Kepler had friends in Gregor Horst, previously professor of medicine in Wittenberg and Giessen and physician- in-ordinary to Landgrave Ludwig of Hesse, with whom he stayed; and Johann Baptist Hebenstreit, rector of the gymnasium, who looked after the bales of paper Kepler had purchased for the Rudolfine Tables.
