5.0 out of 5 stars historically important, Jun 4 2005
By W Boudville - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Harmonies Of the World (Paperback)
For students of history, here is a reprint of one of Kepler's works. Centuries old. But noteworthy because before Newton came on the scene, Kepler's work was one of the high water marks of astronomy. Plus, the material in the book was useful to Newton, when he would apply his equations to explaining various of Kepler's observations.

Plus, another attraction of this book is the introduction by Hawking. So there are two great names on the same cover. For the layman in physics, here is a noted viewpoint of Kepler's accomplishments.

1.0 out of 5 stars terribly ugly, Jun 6 2011
By Simon Mitternacht - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I'm sure this will be an interesting read, but the packaging is really terrible. It has been OCR'd from an older edition and typeset in some inappropriate sans serif font, with tables and figures in low-resolution scanned versions. I might just throw this one away and get a prettier version because this is just too annoying.

2.0 out of 5 stars Needs some set up work done, Aug 5 2011
By German Fafian Parente - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The book in itself is agreat historical reference but the kindle version has 2 major drawbacks.
1-. All graphics are of a really low quality and some are even ineligible as the "tint" is much lighter than the one used for the font.
2-. all text in italics are not properly formatted. The words are all jointed together and without spacing making them all hard to read.

I can not recommend this book until these issues are solved.
