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.Cambridge companions to philosophy.SciencePhilosophyHistorySciencePhilosophyHistory.520/.92Machamer Peter K.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK996205066403316Cambridge Companion to Galileo374939UNISA
