Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Owen Gingerich's engaging account of his decades-long pursuit of surviving copies of Nicolaus Copernicus's De revolutionibus. Part history of astronomy, part biography of a revolutionary book, and part bibliographical detective story, the work follows Gingerich through libraries, private collections, auction houses, courtrooms, and encounters with stolen and forged copies. Gingerich examines annotations and ownership evidence found in hundreds of surviving copies to challenge the longstanding claim that Copernicus's work was "the book nobody read." Illustrated throughout, with color plates, bibliography, appendices, and index. The copyright page contains the complete number line ending in "1," confirming the first printing. Condition: Very good hardcover in a very good dust jacket. Binding remains firm and square. Pages appear clean, bright, and unmarked, with mild toning along the page edges. Dust jacket shows light shelf wear, minor rubbing, and slight creasing or compression at the spine ends and corners; no substantial tears or losses visible. A particularly appealing book for readers and collectors interested in Copernicus, the history of astronomy, the Scientific Revolution, early printing, bibliography, provenance research, and books about books. Although the title itself is readily available, clean first-printing copies retaining their jackets have somewhat greater collectible appeal. Carefully packed for shipment. Domestic orders generally ship by USPS Media Mail unless another service is requested. International shipping is available at cost. Returns accepted in accordance with AbeBooks' return policies.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. In the spring of 1543 as the celebrated astronomer, Nicolaus Copernicus, lay on his death bed, his fellow clerics brought him a long-awaited package: the final printed pages of the book he had worked on for many years: De revolutionibus (On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres). Though Copernicus would not live to hear of its extraordinary impact, his book, which first suggested that the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the universe, is today recognized as one of the most influential scientific works of all time - thanks in part to astrophysicist Owen Gingerich. Part biography of a book, part scientific exploration, part bibliographic detective story, The Book Nobody Read recolors the history of cosmology and offers new appreciation of the enduring power of an extraordinary book and its ideas.…
