關於這本電子書

The Copernican Achievement captures the pivotal discussions and insights from the 1973 symposium at UCLA, commemorating the profound influence of Nicolaus Copernicus on science and thought. This volume presents papers from leading scholars in history and philosophy of science, including lively and incisive debates among renowned figures such as Imre Lakatos and Stephen Toulmin. Organized by John G. Burke, with contributions from scholars like Edward Rosen and Julian Schwinger, the conference delved into the transformative impact of Copernican theory and its enduring legacy.

Supported by UCLA’s Department of History and College of Letters and Sciences, The Copernican Achievement showcases an engaging blend of historical perspective and philosophical rigor. With diverse and often controversial perspectives, this collection explores how Copernicus’s revolutionary ideas reshaped scientific paradigms and human understanding of the cosmos. Ideal for historians, philosophers, and students of science, this volume offers fresh insights into the Copernican revolution and its continued relevance to scientific inquiry.
