Three Copernican Treatises - Nicolaus Copernicus - Bog

Three Copernican Treatises is a collection of three important works by the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, who revolutionized our understanding of the solar system. The first work, Commentariolus, is a short summary of Copernicus' heliocentric theory, which proposed that the sun, not the earth, was at the center of the universe. The second work, Letter Against Werner, is a response to the criticisms of the astronomer Andreas Werner, who argued against Copernicus' theory. The third work, Narratio Prima, is a letter from Copernicus' student and assistant, Rheticus, describing his travels to meet Copernicus and learn more about his theories. Together, these three works provide a fascinating glimpse into the development of one of the most important scientific theories in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
