      • Résumé :
        Westman's profound understanding of his subject informs every page of this magisterial book. The Copernican Question provides a new road map to one of the central episodes in the history of science, in all its cultural, social, and philosophical complexity. --Peter Dear, author of Revolutionizing the Sciences: European Knowledge and Its Ambitions, 1500-1700

        The Copernican Question is a truly astonishing work. Westman writes with the authority of someone who has really done his homework; he tells a fascinating story and tells it exceedingly well. --Ernan McMullin, editor of The Church and Galileo

        Robert Westman's engrossing book--the fruit of many years' research--offers the best answer given so far to the question of Copernicus. The Polish astronomer was an enigma to his contemporaries and to many who later struggled to understand his ideas. Westman shows that astrological prediction provides the missing key to his work and to its interpretation by astronomers in the subsequent decades. He sets the Copernican tradition against a backdrop of tumultuous religious conflict, apocalyptic prophecies, and the explosive growth of printed publications. This book is a magnificent scholarly achievement. Everyone who is seriously interested in the science and culture of early-modern Europe will want to read it. --Jan Golinski, author of British Weather and the Climate of Enlightenment

        Robert Westman's The Copernican Question is a magnificent achievement. It is a comprehensive, nuanced, and fascinating reinterpretation of the Copernican century and the transformation of astronomy. This book will be of interest to anyone who wants a new understanding of the history of the heliocentric hypothesis and the complex problems facing Copernicus and his contemporaries and followers. --Carolyn Merchant, author of The Death of Nature: Women, Ecology, and the Scientific Revolution

        The Copernican Question is a richly detailed, extensively researched, and engagingly written book that radically recontextualizes major figures in the science of the stars from Copernicus to Galileo, revealing new connections and motivations for their work and ideas. It will be required reading for historians and philosophers of science and for anyone interested in how and why we came to know what we do about the heavens. --Lawrence M. Principe, author of The Scientific Revolution: A Very Short Introduction
