Description

Explore the intellectual foundations of one of history's greatest scientists with Galileo and His Sources. In this work, William A. Wallace examines the importance of early manuscripts that were previously dismissed as mere juvenile exercises. By analyzing Galileo's scientific writings from the late 1580s through 1640, this book provides a clear view of how his thought evolved over time and identifies the specific sources that shaped his discoveries. As part of the Princeton Legacy Library, this edition uses modern print-on-demand technology to bring back a significant, previously out-of-print title from the Princeton University Press collection. This ensures that researchers, students, and historians of science have access to the original text in its intended form. Whether you are studying the history of science or the specific development of Galilean thought, this book offers a deep look into the heritage of the Collegio Romano and its impact on scientific progress.
