Readers not familiar with the story of how Nicholas Copernicus disrupted 1000 years of astronomical wisdom according to Ptolemy should study this history. Copernicus got it right with his heliocentric model of the solar system, but any "due diligence" by senior academics of his time would have concluded he was dead wrong. All academic establishments have a stake in maintaining the validity and relevance of the work that got them to the top of their professions. [Pg.591]

In the year 1543, two revolutionary books were published which, before the days of printing, might easily have been ignored by orthodox thinkers. Now, however, they made their way eveiywhere and could not be overlooked. One was a book by a Polish astronomer, Nicholas Copernicus (1473-1543), which held that the Earth was not the center of the universe as the great Greek astronomers had maintained, but that the Sun was. The other was a book by a Flemish anatomist, Andreas Vesalius (1514-64), which portrayed human anatomy with unprecedented accuracy. It was based on Vesalius s own observations, and refuted many of the beliefs that dated back to ancient Greek sources. [Pg.28]

Jabtohski s work was interrupted once again by World War II. From 1939 to 1945 Jabtonski served in the Polish Army, and he spent lime as a prisoner of first the Germany Army and then the Soviet Army. In 1946 he returned to Poland to chair a new Department of Physics in the new Nicholas Copernicus University in Toruh. This beginning occurred in the very difficult postwar years in a country totally destroyed by World War II. Despite all these difficulties, Jabtohski with... [Pg.5]
