Like Michelangelo, Galileo is another Renaissance great known just
by his first name. A name that is synonymous with scientific
achievement. Born in Pisa, Italy, in the sixteenth century, Galileo
contributed to the era's great rebirth of knowledge. He invented a
telescope with which he was able to observe the heavens. From
there, not even the sky was the limit! He turned long held notions
about the universe topsy turvy with his support of a sun-centric
solar system. Patricia Brennan Demuth offers a sympathetic portrait
of a brilliant man who lived in a time when speaking scientific
truth to those in power was still a dangerous preposition.
