Paperback. Condition: Good. A towering figure in intellectual history and one of the fathers of modern astronomy, the great mathematician Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) is best known for his discovery of the three laws of planetary motion, which paved the way for a dynamic explanation of the heavenly phenomena. At a time when the Ptolemaic view still prevailed in official circles, Kepler undertook to prove the truth of the Copernican world view and through exceptional perseverance and force of intellect achieved that goal. His epochal intellectual feats are completely and thoroughly described in this splendid work, considered the definitive biography of Kepler. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources, the author presents a fascinating and erudite picture of Kepler's scientific accomplishments, his public life (work with Tycho Brahe, the Danish astronomer; mathematical appointments at Graz, Prague, and Linz; pioneering work with calculus and optics, and more) and his personal life: childhood and youth, financial situation, his mother's trial as a witch, his own lifelong fear of religious persecution, his difficulties in choosing one of eleven possible young women as his second wife, and more, through his last years in Ulm and death in Regensburg. Until his death in 1956, Professor Max Caspar was the world's foremost Kepler scholar. He had spent over two-thirds of his life assembling, cataloging, describing, analyzing, and editing Kepler's works. To this biography he brought tremendous learning and passionate enthusiasm for his subject, creating an unsurpassed resource on the life and work of one of history's greatest scientific minds. Originally published in German and superbly translated into English by C. Doris Hellman, Kepler will fascinate scholars and general readers alike.…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Este trabajo monumental de Max Caspar (1880-1956), la biografía más completa y fidedigna del padre de las leyes del movimiento planetario, abarca todos los aspectos de la vida de Johannes Kepler, la figura más atractiva entre las que protagonizaron la revolución copernicana y la fundación de la astronomía moderna en la Europa del siglo XVII. Su trabajo y su obra estuvieron siempre marcados por una combinación fascinante de especulación mística y rigor científico y matemático. Fue astrónomo, matemático y astrólogo. Como creyente fervoroso, estaba convencido de que Dios había diseñado la creación según un plan y que el ser humano estaba capacitado para descifrarlo. Dedicó todo su esfuerzo intelectual al descubrimiento del plan universal divino y, en el curso de esa búsqueda apasionada de la armonía del cosmos, alcanzó sus mayores logros científicos y sus ensoñaciones místicas más desenfrenadas. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

429 S. 12°, Orig.-Pappbd. Standardwerk Max Stirners (1806-1856), des Hauptvertreters des sog. Individual-Anarchismus. Ab ca. 1843 arbeitete er am Manuskript, es erschien im Oktober 1844 mit dem Erscheinungsjahr 1845. Im Zentrum des Stirnerschen Denkens steht die Gestalt des Eigners, als Synonym für Egoist oder Einziger. Stirner gilt als Klassiker des Amoralismus und des Ethischen Egoismus: ?Mir geht nichts über Mich.? Dieser Aspekt von Stirners Philosophie steht in einem Spannungsverhältnis zu seinem Konzept des ?Vereins? Dieser konzeptionell vage gebliebene Gegen-Verbund zum Staat stellt die von den Eignern bevorzugte Lebens- und Kooperationsform dar. - Band berieben, Rücken schwach verfärbt.
