Kepler

Published: 1999
Fiction
"Johannes Kepler, born in 1571 in sout Germany, was one of the world's greatest mathaticians and astronomers. This novel brilliantly recreates his life and his incredible drive to chart the orbits of the planets and the geometry of the universe while being driven from exile to exile by religious and domestic strife. At the same time it illuminates the harsh realities of the Renaissance world; rich in imaginative daring but rooted in poverty, squalor and the tyrannical power of emperors."--Back cover.
