Note galileane:
Isis CB, 91/581 "By the former secretary of the Dutch Society for history of medicine, mathematics and natural sciences, this book is mainly based on the "Edizione nazionale" and on Wohlwill. Written in a clear and popular way, it deals with all important phases of Galilei's life and points out that the real novelty of Galileo's work is not so much in his astronomy but in his understanding of mathematics as the basis of natural science. Not the 'Dialogo' but the 'Discorsi' must be considered his main work. There are attractive illustrations. D. Struik"
