What Was the Role of Galileo in the Century-Long Birth of Modern Science?
I answer the above question in the light of two new elements.

| description | I answer the above question in the light of two new elements. Firstly, in the 15th century while Cusanus did not practice experimental science, he substantially anticipated both the Copernican revolution and the birth of Galilei’s methodology. Secondly, I shall introduce a new conception of the foundations of modern science which are constituted by three dialectics. In this light, the complete birth of modern science, whose scope was so broad, required a very long historical process, which was completed in recent years. Within this long time span, Galileo was not only the first to practice a scientific methodology, but also almost the only scientist ever to be aware of the intellectual breadth of scientific enterprise. |
