A Life of Galileo

A Life of GalileoT02027321597
Galileo's astonishing proof that the earth moves around the sun shatters a belief held sacred for two thousand years. Considered an enemy of humanity, he's threatened with torture and faced with a terrible choice: integrity versus intellectual sell-out.
Author Bertolt Brecht
