Publisher Description This book presents new insights into Leibnizs research on planetary theory and his system of pre-established harmony. Although some aspects of this theory have been explored in the literature, others are less well known. In particular, the book offers new contributions on the connection between the planetary theory and the theory of gravitation. It also provides an in-depth discussion of Keplers influence on Leibnizs planetary theory and more generally, on Leibnizs concept of pre-established harmony. Three initial chapters presenting the mathematical and physical details of Leibnizs works provide a frame of reference. The book then goes on to discuss research on Leibnizs conception of gravity and the connection between Leibniz and Kepler.
