Galileo’s Trial, Science’s Echo: A Timeless Lesson
In Mario Livio: Galileo and the Deniers of Science, the acclaimed astrophysicist draws a powerful parallel between the Renaissance genius’s persecution and the modern scientist’s struggle against ignorance. Livio reveals how Galileo’s fate—his observations and experiments dismissed or denied—mirrors today’s challenges, where scientific truths face skepticism, neglect, and outright rejection.
Why read this book? - Discover the surprising link between Galileo’s legacy and the Hubble Space Telescope. - Understand why public dissemination of scientific findings is vital for progress. - See how the pursuit of truth and intellectual freedom can shape—and endanger—a scientist’s life.
For whom? For history of science enthusiasts, working researchers, and anyone who wants to succeed in a world where evidence is often contested.
Published in partnership with the Polytechnic Museum as part of the “Polytech Books” series.
