The Earth Moves

Galileo Galilei is a seminal figure in the history of science. His 1633 trial before the Holy Office of the Inquisition is the prime drama in the history of the conflict between science and religion. This book explains apparent paradoxes and sets this historic moment in a cultural context, portraying Galileo as both humanist and scientist.
