ameyawarde 's review for:
This book is really a biography of Galileo, but has much more information about his daughter and their relationship than other biographies. I had just read Galileo: A Life by James Reston Jr before this, and he mentions that Galileo fell in love with a lowborn woman and had 3 kids, and then just never mentioned the woman again, and only the daughters-going-to-convent rather in passing. I think it's a shame on that other book to so thoroughly leave out such an important and active person in Galileo's life, and I appreciate learning about her from this book, even if it's not really *about* her.
