Johannes Kepler鈥檚 Astronomia Nova

Johannes Kepler鈥檚 Astronomia Nova

William H. Donahue
Role: Translator
Written by a Tutor Emeritus of St. John鈥檚 college.

The only English translation of Kepler’s 1609 masterpiece. A work of astonishing originality, Astronomia Nova stands, with Copernicus’ De Revolutionibus and Newton’s Principia as one of the founding texts of the scientific revolution. Kepler revolutionized astronomy by insisting that it be based upon physics rather than ideal geometrical models.
