An Introduction to Astronomy (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book marked the first significant publication in the field of astronomy, establishing an entirely new way of understanding the universe. The author argues that the Earth is not the center of the solar system, but rather the Sun, and that the planets revolve around the Sun. This revolutionary concept, known as the heliocentric theory, had been proposed by other scientists before, but it was the author's book that provided the mathematical proof and observational evidence necessary to convince the scientific community. The author also made important contributions to the fields of optics and motion, revolutionizing the study of astronomy and laying the groundwork for future scientific discoveries. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333078140_0
