This book is an imported biography of a scientific figure. Dawa Sobel, who has always been fascinated by Galileo and deeply inspired by the precious letters left to this day by Galileo's daughter, Maria Celeste, has written a biography that completely reshapes the image and achievements of this legendary figure. Galileo's story is still seen as a pioneer of the scientific revolution and a symbol of conflict with the Church—Einstein called him "the father of modern physics and indeed the father of all modern science." This work also vividly portrays Galileo's daughter, a woman previously forgotten by history. Her father described her as "intelligent, virtuous, and incredibly tender and affectionate towards me." Sobel switches between Galileo's turbulent public life and Maria Celeste's secluded world, sketching a vivid picture of Buddhism under the Medici family's rule.
本书为引进版科学人物传记。达娃·索贝尔一直对伽利略满怀痴迷，也深受伽利略女儿玛丽亚·塞莱斯特留存至今的珍贵书信启发。她撰写的这部传记，彻底重塑了这位传奇人物的形象与成就。伽利略的事迹至今仍被视为科学革命的先锋与教会冲突的象征——爱因斯坦曾称他“现代物理学之父乃至整个现代科学之父”。这部作品也生动刻画了伽利略的女儿，这位此前已被历史遗忘的女性。她被父亲形容为“心智聪慧、品性高洁，且对我无比温柔依恋”的人。索贝尔在伽利略波澜壮阔的公共生活与玛丽亚·塞莱斯特与世隔绝的世界之间切换叙事，勾勒出美第奇家族统治下的佛
