Description

Discover a hidden piece of scientific history with Galileo's Logical Treatises. This volume by Springer presents a translation of a significant Latin manuscript that was previously omitted from the National Edition of Galileo's works. For centuries, these writings remained unknown to the broader scholarly community, making this publication a rare opportunity to study his foundational thought. William A. Wallace provides a clear translation of the logical treatises, specifically focusing on the appropriated Latin questions regarding Aristotle's Posterior Analytics Book II. To ensure the text is accessible to modern readers, the author includes a detailed introduction that covers the manuscript's contents, its origins, dating, and its relationship to Galileo's other Pisan writings. This book is an essential resource for those studying the history and philosophy of science. The translation is supported by extensive notes and commentary, providing the context needed to understand these complex logical arguments. Whether you are a researcher or a student of scientific history, this work offers a direct look at the intellectual development of one of history's most famous scientists.
