Excerpt from Life of Galileo Galilei: With Illustrations of the Advancement of Experimental PhilosophyGalileo was one of the most distinguished among the pioneers of science. His name, and slight portions of his history, are familiar to all. This is not sufficient. His labors and their results should be well pondered and under stood. He is entitled to this distinction, whether we consider the acumen, diligence and perseverance of the man, the importance of his discoveries, their in¿uence on the extension of knowledge and the science of investiga tion or the unfavorable period in which he\ lived, and the mountain difi'i culties with which he contended. To establish his claims to the attention of every American student, we need only notice his principal discoveries which may be seen at a glance in the table of contents. These were made at a time, when the least innovation on received principles was sure to ill-1 cur, both the odium of the populace and the persecutions of the Romish hie rachy. Yet this profound philosopher, confident in his principles as based on incontrovertible facts, braved all discouragements and dangers, and be queathed his discoveries and his fame as a precious legacy to succeeding generations.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
