Description
|
|
|
|
In the 16th century Nicolaus Copernicus refuted the age-old belief that the earth stands at the center of the universe; this unabridged reproduction of a 1957 book by leading Copernican scholar Angus Armitage offers a lucid account of the development and progress of the heliocentric theory, as well as a portrait of the astronomer who clarified the basis for modern cosmology.
