Summary[edit]

Anti-heliocentrism book's title is the following: "The new planet no planet". This is a reproduction of the book's title page. It reads the following full title; "The new planet no planet: or, The earth no wandring star except in the wandring heads of Galileans. Here out of the principles of divinity, philosophy, astronomy, reason, and sense, the earth's immobility is asserted; the true sense of Scripture in this point, cleared; the fathers and philosophers vindicated; divers theologicall and philosophicall points handled, and Copernicus his opinion, as erroneous, ridiculous, and impious, fully refuted." It was written as an answer to the idea of "earth may be a planet". Date: 1646.

Imprint: "Printed by J. Young and are to be sold by Mercy Meighen, and Gabriel Bedell, next to the middle-Temple-gate., 1646." [1] This is a reproduction by EEBO.
