His work on "cosmography", the field that dealt with the earth and its position in the universe, was presented in his most famous publications, Astronomicum Caesareum (1540) and Cosmographicus liber (1524). His books were extremely influential in his time, with the numerous editions in multiple languages being published until 1609. The lunar crater Apianus and asteroid 19139 Apian are named in his honour. Apianus's work included in mathematics - in 1527 he published a variation of Pascal's triangle, and in 1534 a table of sines - as well as astronomy. In 1531, he observed Halley's Comet and noted that a comet's tail always point away from the sun. Girolamo Fracastoro also detected this in 1531, but Apianus's publication was the first to also include graphics. He designed sundials, published manuals for astronomical instruments and crafted volvelles ("Apian wheels"), measuring instruments useful for calculating time and distance for astronomical and astrological applications. ~ We appreciate your consideration of one of our books, art prints or novelty items.

No defects, other than slight wear from being stored or moved around the bookshop. ~ Excerpt from wikipedia about the author: Petrus Apianus (April 16, 1495 to April 21, 1552; also known as Peter Apian) was a German humanist, famous for his works in mathematics, astronomy and cartography. The crater Apianus on the Moon is named in his honour. He was born as Peter Bienewitz or Bennewitz in Leisnig in Saxony; his father was a shoemaker. The family was relatively well off, belonging to the middle class citizenry of Leisnig. Apianus was educated at the Latin school in Rochlitz. From 1516 to 1519 he studied at the University of Leipzig ; during this time, he Latinized his name to Apianus ( lat. apis means "bee"; "Biene" is the German word for bee ). In 1519, Apianus moved to Vienna and continued his studies at the University of Vienna, which was considered one of the leading universities in geography and mathematics at the time and where Georg Tannstetter taught. When the plague broke out in Vienna in 1521, he completed his studies with a B.A. and moved to Regensburg and then to Landshut. In Landshut, he produced his Cosmographicus liber (1524), a highly respected work on astronomy and navigation that was to see at least 30 reprints in 14 languages and that remained popular until the end of the 16th century. He married the daughter of a councilman of Landshut, Katharina Mosner, in 1526. They would have 14 children together, five girls and nine sons, one of which was Philipp Apian. In 1527, Peter Apian was called to the University of Ingolstadt as a mathematician and printer. His print shop started small. Among the first books he printed were the writings of Johann Eck, Martin Luther's antagonist. Later, his print shop soon became well-known for its high-quality editions of geographic and cartographic works. Through his work, Apian became a favourite of emperor Charles V. Charles had praised his work (the Cosmographicus liber) on the Reichstag of 1530 and granted him a printing monopoly in 1532 and 1534. In 1535, the emperor made Apian an armiger, i.e. granted him the right to display a coat of arms. In 1540, Apian printed the Astronomicum Caesareum, dedicated to Charles V. Aprox title in English would be: The Apian Astronomical Quadrant, Recently Invented and Recently Primarily Edited, are added to this, and other equally new observatory instruments, adapted to discerning the hours of night and day. Then are added the dimensions of the height, distance, and depth of wells and towers or aedicules: to all these are added, by which means the heights of structures can be known in various ways through a mirror. ~ Overall a wonderful copy and informative resource.
