Sobre IBD

Este trabajo monumental de Max Caspar (1880-1956), la biografía más completa y fidedigna del padre de las leyes del movimiento planetario, abarca todos los aspectos de la vida de Johannes Kepler, la figura más atractiva entre las que protagonizaron la revolución copernicana y la fundación de la astronomía moderna en la Europa del siglo XVII. Su trabajo y su obra estuvieron siempre marcados por una combinación fascinante de especulación mística y rigor científico y matemático. Fue astrónomo, matemático y astrólogo. Como creyente fervoroso, estaba convencido de que Dios había diseñado la creación según un plan y que el ser humano estaba capacitado para descifrarlo. Dedicó todo su esfuerzo intelectual al descubrimiento del plan universal divino y, en el curso de esa búsqueda apasionada de la armonía del cosmos, alcanzó sus mayores logros científicos y sus ensoñaciones místicas más desenfrenadas.
