Description

Inspired by a long fascination with Galileo, and by the remarkable surviving letters of Galileo's daughter, a cloistered nun, Dava Sobel has written a biography about the man that Einstein called the ‘father of modern physics'. She also presents a portrait of a woman described by her father as ‘a woman of exquisite mind and singular goodness'. Sobel dramatically recolors the personality of a mythic figure whose clash with Catholic doctrine continues to define the schism between science and religion. Recorded on February 13, 2001.
