Flat Earth by Christine Garwood

Argues that contrary to popular belief, fostered in classrooms the world over, Christopher Columbus did not discover that the world was round. Based on a range of original sources, this book raises issues central to the history and philosophy of science, its relationship with religion and the making of human knowledge about the natural world.
Christine Garwood studied history as an undergraduate and was later awarded a doctorate in history of science. She has been a Research Fellow at the Open University and is currently a freelance writer and researcher.
