A Scheme of Heaven with Author, Data Scientist, Science Historian and Curious Skeptic Alexander Boxer

The original space race….“They say the scientific revolution was driven by astronomy, but you could just as easily say it was driven by astrology”. Let’s find out!

Our special guest is Alexander Boxer ‘a data scientist with a PhD in Physics and degrees in the history of science and classics + a healthy grasp of Latin. In a perfect storm, or in this case his first book, these skill sets came together to create A Scheme of Heaven: Astrology and the Birth of Science.

I found Alexanders recent book in our library system here in Australia, and the freshness of his cross disciplinary approach to the history of Astrology as a driving force of science and early technology intrigued me. So here we are. For his research Boxer was able to read texts in their original Latin, so nothing was lost in translation. Astrology, Astronomy and mathematics were originally the same bag with various applications. ‘Astrology was the ancient worlds most ambitious attempt to fathom the heavens, an epic data-analysis enterprise sustained by some of history’s most brilliant minds. Humans are pattern-matching creatures, and astrology is our grandest pattern matching game.

Find out what ‘A scheme of heaven’ referred to, what the ‘horoscope’ previously meant and how astrology, (and it’s underlying search for meaning) has impacted our world more than most people realise.
