The Gradual Acceptance Of The Copernican Theory Of The Universe is a book written by Dorothy Stimson in 1917. The book explores the history of the Copernican theory, which proposed that the Earth and other planets revolve around the sun, as opposed to the previously accepted Ptolemaic system where the Earth was believed to be the center of the universe. Stimson traces the evolution of this theory from its inception by Copernicus in the 16th century, through the work of Galileo and Kepler, to its eventual acceptance by the scientific community in the 17th century. The book also delves into the social and religious implications of this shift in thinking, as well as the impact it had on the development of modern astronomy. Overall, The Gradual Acceptance Of The Copernican Theory Of The Universe provides a comprehensive and insightful overview of one of the most significant scientific revolutions in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
