The Cambridge Companion to Galileo de Peter Machamer

The Cambridge Companion to Galileo: Cambridge Companions to Philosophy

Peter Machamer

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 aug 1998

Not only a hero of the scientific revolution, but after his conflict with the church, a hero of science, Galileo is today rivalled in the popular imagination only by Newton and Einstein. But what did Galileo actually do, and what are the sources of the popular image we have of him? This 1998 collection of specially-commissioned essays is unparalleled in the depth of its coverage of all facets of Galileo's work. A particular feature of the volume is the treatment of Galileo's relationship with the church. It will be of interest to philosophers, historians of science, cultural historians and those in religious studies.
