Kepler is a key figure in the development of modern astronomy. His
work is also important in the history of philosophy and methodology
of science as a whole. The present study is concerned with one of
Kepler's major preoccupations, namely his search for the
geometrical plan according to which God created the Universe. The
author discusses how Kepler's cosmological theories, which embrace
music and astrology as well as astronomy, are related to his other
work. The subject will be of great interest to historians of
science, mathematicians and astronomers as well as to historians of
the late Renaissance.
