The founder of modern science and the embodiment of the conflict between science and faith, Galileo remains the most fascinating figure of his age. In this biography, James Reston Jr. provides a lively, vivid portrait of Galileo, taking the listener to the heart of this passionate, embattled, arrogant, and brilliant man.

Tim Donovan is a Catholic priest with a guilty conscience - though not in the way you’d guess. And Katherine Donne is a Parisian socialite who long ago kicked her self-respect to the curb - for good and for ill. And much closer, we have a group of men whose fortunes, graying temples, and positions in life are distinguished and enviable. But their morals? Anything but. And that’s where Evan Reed comes in.

He pointed the telescope at heaven and saw something the world wasn't ready for. Galileo Galilei didn’t invent the telescope. He weaponized it. In a world where the Earth sat still, the heavens were perfect, and truth came from authority, Galileo saw craters on the Moon, moons orbiting Jupiter, spots on the Sun, and stars packed into what people thought was fog. Then he said so, out loud. This book walks through the full arc of the man who refused to lie about what he saw, from his early years as a dropout in Pisa to his final years under house arrest.

"Il pensiero logico, da solo, non ci può fornire conoscenze sul mondo dell'esperienza e termina in essa. Le proposizioni puramente logiche sono vuote davanti alla realtà. È grazie a questa conoscenza e soprattutto per averla fatta penetrare a colpi di martello nel mondo della scienza, che Galileo è diventato il padre della fisica moderna e soprattutto delle scienze naturali moderne". Albert Einstein.

Un convento. Una muerte. Un descubrimiento que cambiará el mundo para siempre. Corre el año de 1631. Mientras la peste asola Florencia, una red de intrigas y crímenes envuelve al convento de San Mateo, donde han tomado los hábitos Virginia y Livia, las dos hijas del científico más vigilado por la Inquisición, Galileo Galilei.

Il Dialogo sopra i due massimi sistemi del mondo è un celeberrimo trattato di Galileo Galilei, scritto sotto forma dialogica negli anni tra il 1624 e il 1630 e pubblicato nel 1632. L'opera, strutturata nel dialogo fra tre personaggi: Simplicio (che riprende il nome dell'antico filosofo del VI secolo Simplicio di Cilicia), Sagredo e Filippo Salviati, ebbe da subito un enorme successo, ma la Chiesa, che dapprima ne aveva concesso l'imprimatur, mutò radicalmente la sua posizione, inserendola nell'Indice dei libri proibiti nel 1633.

In 1610, Galileo published the Siderius nuncius, or Starry Messenger, a "hurried little masterpiece" in John Heilbron's words. Presenting to the world his remarkable observations using the recently invented telescope, Galileo dramatically challenged our idea of the perfection of the heavens and the centrality of the Earth in the universe. Indeed, the appearance of the little book is regarded as one of the great moments in the history of science.

The stage is set for a modern historical mock trial of Galileo’s original heresy charges, commemorating the 400th anniversary of the legendary event.

Galileo Unbound traces the journey that brought us from Galileo's law of free fall to today's geneticists measuring evolutionary drift, entangled quantum particles moving among many worlds, and our lives as trajectories traversing a health space with thousands of dimensions. Remarkably, common themes persist that predict the evolution of species as readily as the orbits of planets or the collapse of stars into black holes.

Nel Quattrocento e nel Cinquecento, la "casa" in cui gli uomini abitavano diventò più grande e misteriosa. Si scoprì l'esistenza di un nuovo continente, l'America; e qualcuno intuì che la Terra non era il centro dell'Universo, ma un sassolino che volava in uno spazio i cui confini, se esistevano, non potevano che essere irraggiungibili. A questa dilatazione dello spazio si accompagnò una dilatazione del tempo: giacché l'Antichità, che non era mai stata dimenticata, cessò di essere il passato e diventò un modello vivo e vicino.
