     The publication in 1632 of Galileos Dialogue on the Two Chief World Systems, Ptolemaic and Copernican marked a crucial moment in the scientific revolution and helped Galileo become the father of modern science. The Dialogue contains Galileos mature synthesis of astronomy, physics, and methodology, and a critical confirmation of Copernicuss hypothesis of the earths motion. However, the book also led Galileo to stand trial with the Inquisition, in what became known as the greatest scandal in Christendom.In The Routledge Guidebook to Galileos Dialogue, Maurice A. Finocchiaro introduces and analyzes:the intellectual background and historical context of the Copernican controversy and Inquisition trial;the key arguments and critiques that Galileo presents on both sides of the dialogue;the Dialogues content and significance from three special points of view: science, methodology, and rhetoric;the enduring legacy of the Dialogue and the ongoing application of its approach to other areas.This is an essential introduction for all students of science, philosophy, history, and religion wanting a useful guide to Galileos great classic.
