| Title | Galileo's muse: Renaissance Mathematics and the Arts |
| Author(s) | Mark A. Peterson |
| Publication | Cambridge, Harvard University Press, 2011. |
| Description | vi, 336p. |
| Abstract Note | Mark Peterson makes an extraordinary claim in this fascinating book focused around the life and thought of Galileo: it was the mathematics of Renaissance arts, not Renaissance sciences, that became modern science. Galileo's Muse argues that painters, poets, musicians, and architects brought about a scientific revolution that eluded the philosopher-scientists of the day, steeped as they were in a medieval cosmos and its underlying philosophy.
