This may sound like a rather shameless plug for my book (and, I confess it, in part it is!), but 2013 is proving a rich year for the history of astrology and astronomy, and I wanted to alert readers of this blog of three major studies that have appeared in print since January. These are (in alphabetical order):
- Monica Azzolini, The Duke and the Stars: Astrology and Politics in Renaissance Milan (Harvard University Press, 2013)
- Patrick Boner, Kepler’s Cosmological Synthesis: Astrology, Mechanism and the Soul (Brill, 2013)
- Mary Quinlan-McGrath, Influences: Art, Optics, and Astrology in the Italian Renaissance (Chicago University Press, 2013)
