In every age there are courageous people who break withtradition to explore new ideas and challenge accepted truths.Galileo Galilei was just such a man--a genius--and the first toturn the telescope to the skies to map the heavens. In doing so, heoffered objective evidence that the earth was not the fixed centerof the universe but that it and all the other planets revolvedaround the sun. Galileo kept careful notes and made beautifuldrawings of all that he observed. Through his telescope he broughtthe starts down to earth for everyone to see.
By changing the way people saw the galaxy, Galileo was alsochanging the way they saw themselves and their place in theuniverse. This was very exciting, but to some to some it was deeplydisturbing. Galileo has upset the harmonious view of heaven andearth that had been accepted since ancient times. He had turned theworld upside down.
In this amazing new book, Peter Sís employs the artist's lens togive us an extraordinary view of the life of Galileo Galilei. Sístells his story in language as simple as a fairy tale, in picturesas rich and tightly woven as a tapestry, and in Galileo's ownwords, written more than 350 years ago and still resonant withtruth.
