In a startling reinterpretation of the evidence, Stillman Drake advances the hypothesis that Galileoâs condemnation by the Inquisition was caused not by his defiance of the Church, but by the hostility of contemporary philosophers. Galileoâs own beautifully lucid arguments are used to show how his scientific methodÂbased on a search not for causes but for lawsÂwas utterly divorced from the Aristotelian approach to physics. His methodology had a definitive impact on the development of modern physics, and led to a final parting of the ways between science and philosophy.
