Heterodoxy in Early Modern Science and Religion
John Brooke
What was the role of religious belief in the rise of modern science? Was it always as negative as the Galileo affair might suggest? This volume talks about the independent thinkers in early modern Europe - Galileo, Hobbes, and Newton - and the ways in which their heterodoxy in science or religion affected their understanding of nature and of God.
