Sobre este artículo
New York: Simon & Schuster, 2007. Hardback small octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), map, pages lightly toned, minor edgewear jacket, remainder stripe. 239 pp. A biography of the Polish Renaissance genius astronomer that tells the surprising, little-known story behind the dawn of the scientific age. His "On the Revolution of Heavenly Spheres" was published the year he died aged 70. He was first to provide the data and mathematics that proved the earth and other planets revolve around the sun, and that the earth rotates on its axis every 24 hours, contrary to rigid orthodoxy at the time.
