Herausgegeben von Heribert M. Nobis, Menso Folkerts, Stefan Kirschner und Andreas Kühne Die neue, kritische und kommentierte Gesamtausgabe der Werke von Nicolaus Copernicus erscheint seit 1973. Das Editionsprojekt, ursprünglich während des Zweiten Weltkriegs gestartet, war in der Nachkriegszeit zum Erliegen gekommen. Nur die ersten beiden Bände dieser ersten Edition konnten erscheinen. Allerdings hinterließen die Copernicus-Forscher Franz und Karl Zeller sowie Hans Schmauch Vorarbeiten für weitere Bände, die der von der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft ins Leben gerufenen Copernicus-Forschungsstelle zur Verfügung gestellt wurden. Seit 1989 befindet sich diese Forschungsstelle im Institut für Geschichte der Naturwissenschaften der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. Herausgeber der Gesamtausgabe sind Heribert M. Nobis, Menso Folkerts, Stefan Kirschner und Andreas Kühne. In Zusammenarbeit mit der Copernicus-Forschungsstelle der Polnischen Akademie der Wissenschaften wurde in München ein zentrales Copernicus-Archiv aufgebaut.

Ausdrücklich ausgeklammert sind in der vorliegenden neuen Münchner Edition der Urkunden, Akten und Nachrichten die Marginalia von Copernicus in gedruckten Werken, seine astronomischen Beobachtungen, seine Rezepte und die Münzschriften, die den Bänden IV,1 und IV,2 (Opera minora""), die sich bereits in Vorbereitung befinden, vorbehalten bleiben.

Born in Poland in 1473, Nicolaus Copernicus launched a quiet revolution. No scientist so radically transformed our understanding of our place in the universe as this curious bishop's doctor and church official. In his quest to discover a beautiful and coherent system to describe the motions of the planets, Copernicus placed the sun in the center of the system and made the earth a planet traveling around the sun. Today it is hard to imagine our solar system any other way, but for his time Copernicus's idea was earthshaking. In 1616 the church banned his book Revolutions because it contradicted the accepted notion that God placed Earth in the center of the universe. Even though those who knew of his work considered his idea dangerous, Revolutions remained of interest only to other scientists for many years. It took almost two hundred years for his concept of a sun-centered system to reach the general public. None the less, what Copernicus set out in his remarkable text truly revolutionized science. For this, Copernicus, a quiet doctor who made a tremendous leap of imagination, is considered the father of the Scientific Revolution.Oxford Portraits in Science is an on-going series of scientific biographies for young adults. Written by top scholars and writers, each biography examines the personality of its subject as well as the thought process leading to his or her discoveries. These illustrated biographies combine accessible technical information with compelling personal stories to portray the scientists whose work has shaped our understanding of the natural world.

This is by far the most exhaustive biography on Niels Stensen, anatomist, geologist and bishop, better known as "Nicolaus Steno". We learn about the scientist’s family and background in Lutheran Denmark, of his teachers at home and abroad, of his studies and travels in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Bohemia and Germany, of his many pioneering achievements in anatomy and geology, of his encounters with Swammerdam, Malpighi and with members of the newly established Royal Society of London and the Accademia del Cimento in Florence, and with the philosopher Spinoza. It further treats Stensen’s religious conversion. The book includes the full set of Steno's anatomical and geological scientific papers in original language. The editors thoroughly translated the original Latin text to English, and included numerous footnotes on the background of this bibliographic and scientific treasure from the 17th century.
