| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Galileo Galilei tells the story of the famous mathematician and the work he did to change the way we see the world. Although he was censored and imprisoned for his radical ideas about the motion of the earth, he persisted in his pursuit of scientific truths to bestow upon future generations the inspiration to challenge conventional views. His theories about the motions of falling bodies, his study of pendulums, and his important discoveries in astronomy are all explained in this volume and illustrated with photographs and diagrams. |
