Sample Book Insights: #1 The death of your sister is a great sorrow, but it is nothing compared to the sorrow you feel for her loss. You must remember that you are all alone in this world, and that you have no one else to lean on but God. #2 Galileo’s daughter, Virginia, was the first of his children to mirror his brilliance and sensibility. She was born in 1600, the same year as the astronomer and heretic Bruno was burned at the stake for insisting that the Earth moved around the Sun. #3 Galileo, now 59, was a professor of mathematics at Padua. He had set a telescope in the garden behind his house and turned it skyward in 1609, when he saw new worlds that transformed his life. He was lionized as another Columbus for his conquests, but he attracted enmity and suspicion. #4 In 1623, a new pope was elected in Rome, Urban VIII. He was a intellectualist who was interested in scientific investigation, and he had written a poem for Galileo.
