'Problema Geographicum De Longitudine Locorum Terrae Per Acum Nauticam Indaganda' explores the problem of determining longitude on Earth using a nautical needle. Authored by Nicasius Grammaticus and Joseph Schreier, both members of the Society of Jesus, this work delves into the scientific challenges of geographic measurement. The book offers a historical perspective on the methods and theories employed during the period to solve one of navigation’s most critical issues. It presents a detailed examination of the techniques proposed to ascertain longitude, reflecting the intellectual climate and scientific endeavors of its time. A valuable resource for historians of science, geography, and navigation, this work provides insights into the evolving understanding of Earth’s measurements and the tools used to achieve them.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
