Seller's Description:
VG-(Slight aging to dj, some handwriting or underlining in pencil; book is otherwise clean. ) Royal blue cloth, with dark blue title block on spine, blue & illus. dust jacket, 301 pp., diagrams. Johannes Kepler's "A defence of Tycho against Ursus" provides a polemical and highly original account of the history and methodology of astronomy. In the course of the work he counters a sceptical attack on astronomy with a striking and optimistic account of the discipline as ever more faithfully portraying the cosmos. Nicholas Jardine offers here an edition and the first translation into English of the text. He accompanies this with essays on the provenance of the treatise--the circumstances which provoked Kepler to write it, an analysis of its strategy, style and historical sources, and an analysis of the contents of Ursus' Tractatus, to which Kepler was replying. Dr. Jardine also provides three extended interpretive essays on the intrinsic interest and historical significance of the work." (dj).
