«El tesoro de Kepler» is the historical novel by Jean-Pierre Luminet, published by EDB Ficción in hardback (496 pages, in Spanish).
Jean-Pierre Luminet recreates the encounter between Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler, two astronomers opposed in origin and character whose clash proves passionate and violent. The novel interweaves science and poetry to show how both transform sixteenth-century astronomy and change the image of the universe.
The work is the second volume of the series Los constructores del cielo and includes a translation from French by Juan Carlos Arce Gómez.
For readers of historical fiction and popular science interested in astronomy and in the biographies of two key figures of modern science.
