I am not sure which of his books you are asking us about, since he wrote at least three of them. But his best known was On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres (in Latin,
De revolutionibus orbium coelestium). Nicolaus Copernicus was an astronomer, and this book taught something entirely new for the 1500s-- that the planets revolved around the sun.
