Synopsis

The selection features, in the first place, the complete introduction to Astronomia Nova. The Introduction is followed by a substantial selection of chapters presenting Kepler's new celestial physics. In these groundbreaking chapters, the true Kepler emerges, not as a speculative mystic or a number-crunching drudge, but as a first-rate scientific thinker with a wonderfully engaging narrative style.
