William Derham was an influential English clergyman and natural philosopher in the 17th and early 18th centuries, best known for his work in natural history and acoustics. His book "Physico-Theology" popularized the idea of using nature to demonstrate the existence of God, bridging science and theology. Additionally, Derham made significant contributions to the field of meteorology and was one of the first to quantify and publish observations on atmospheric pressure. His work laid important groundwork for later scientific inquiry and the understanding of natural phenomena.
