520    "This collection of essays explores the multi-cultural, 
       multi-religious, and multi-lingual context of learning on 
       the eve of the Copernican revolution. Although 
       Copernicus's work and its influence have been subject to a
       number of excellent studies, there has been surprisingly 
       little attention paid to Copernicus's sources and the 
       diverse cultures and contexts of learning in which he 
       lived and by which he could have been inspired. Previous 
       authors who have attended to this background have tended 
       to put forth singular and rather narrow explanations of 
       Copernicus's turn to heliocentrism. In contrast, this 
       volume does not seek to provide "the" explanation, or even
       "an" explanation, but rather provides the reader with 
       aspects of the complex and surprisingly rich intellectual 
       and scientific world before Copernicus."--|cProvided by
