In 17th century Italy Galileo has just been appointed Chief Mathematician and Philosopher to the Grand Duke of Tuscany. He is the most famous scientist and revered thinker of his generation. But what if his ideas challenge the faith of ordinary men and the power of the church? The epic struggle between two great men who changed history is a revealing and original exploration of the way science, belief and politics shape our lives.
