| Ringkasan: | "In the following pages I have tried to tell the personal story, and to convey some of the historical motives, at the back of the great sixteenth-century revolution in man's outlook on the universe. I hope the book may be of interest, not only to astronomers and to students of the history of science, but also to the general reader desirous of tracing back to their sources some of the scientific ideas which have helped to shape modern thought." [Preface]. |
