Capa do Derek Miller: Copernicus or: a rounder rounding (ePUB)

We all know that Nicolaus Copernicus corrected an old error, the

This short e-book describes productive errors of Copernicus and his successor Kepler.
Derek Miller is an experienced science journalist. He wrote several articles on productive errors in science and history.
