　　This book was first published in 2007 and is a study of the

astronomical culture of sixteenth-century Europe. It examines, in

particular, the ways in which members of the nascent international

astronomical community shared information, attracted patronage and

respect for their work, and conducted their disputes. Particular

attention is paid to the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546–1601),

known for his observatory Uraniborg on the island of Hven, his

operation of a printing press, and his development of a third

world-system to rival those of Ptolemy and Copernicus. Adam Mosley

examines the ways in which Tycho interacted with a Europe-wide

network of scholars, looking not only at how he constructed his

reputation through print, but also at his use of correspondence and

the role that instruments played as vehicles for data and theories.

The book will be of interest to historians of science, historians

of the book, and historians of early modern culture in general.
