Description:
London: William Heinemann, 2004. xii, 306, 8 col plates, text figs. . HB. Vg in d/w. Name and ownership stamp to endpaper.. After three decades of investigation, and after traveling hundreds of thousands of miles across the globe-from Melbourne to Moscow, Boston to Beijing - Gingerich has written a book built on his experience and the remarkable insights gleaned from examining some 600 copies of <i>De Revolutionibus</i>. He found the books owned and annotated by Galileo, Kepler and many other lesser-known astronomers whom he brings back to life, which illuminate the long, reluctant process of accepting the Sun-centred cosmos and highlight the historic tensions between science and the Catholic Church. He traced the ownership of individual copies through the hands of saints, heretics, scalawags, and bibliomaniacs. He was called as the expert witness in the theft of one copy, witnessed the dramatic auction of another, and proves conclusively that <i>De Revolutionibus</i> was as…

Description:
Walker & Co, 2004. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. 5x1x8. Well-illustrated. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Foxing to edges. Pages unmarked. <br> "In the spring of 1543, as astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus lay on his deathbed, his fellow clerics brought him a long-awaited package: the final printed pages of the book he had worked on for many years, De revolutionibus (On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres). Though Copernicus would not live to hear of its extraordinary impact, his book, which first suggested that the Sun, not the Earth, is the center of the universe, is recognized as one of the most influential scientific works of all time - thanks in part to astro-physicist Owen Gingerich.
