GALILEI, GALILEO

Galilei, Galileo: translation

Galilei, Galileo
•Although in the popular mind Galileo is remembered chiefly as an astronomer, it was not in this character that he made really substantial contributions to human knowledge, but rather in the field of mechanics, and especially of dynamics, which science may be said to owe its existence to him
