On Tycho's Island: Tycho Brahe and his Assistants, 1570–1601
Christianson, John Robert (Luther College, Iowa)
This book explores Brahe's wide range of activities which encompass much more than his reputed role of astronomer. Christianson broadens this singular perspective by portraying Brahe as Platonic philosopher, Paracelsian chemist, Ovidian poet and devoted family man.
