Theories of the World from Antiquity to the Copernican Revolution: Second Revised Edition By Michael J. Crowe
2001 | 229 Pages | ISBN: 0486414442 | EPUB | 9 MB


Newly revised edition of Professor Crowe's accessible, enlightening book re-creates the change from an earth-centered to a sun-centered conception of the solar system. The work is organized around a hypothetical debate: Given the evidence available in 1615, which system (Ptolemaic, Copernican, Tychonic, etc.) was most deserving of support?
