"Mathematical Disquisitions": The Booklet of Theses Immortalized by Galileo
Christopher M. Graney
Offers a new English translation of the 1614 Disquisitiones Mathematicae, which Johann Georg Locher wrote under the guidance of the German Jesuit astronomer Christoph Scheiner. The booklet, an anti-Copernican astronomical work, is of interest in large part because Galileo Galilei devoted numerous pages to ridiculing Disquisitiones.
