Revolution in Science cover

This is the compelling story of the two biggest events in the evolution of ideas: the revolutions of Galileo and Darwin. Mark Brake captures the adventure and excitement of these two scientists in this is a timely examination of the ways in which faith and science clash, and how the battle for 'truth' is a perennial one.

"Fascinating. Mark Brake takes a story about the political manipulation of the scientific ideasof Greek natural philosophers by the established church across two millennia and with a facility and style rare among scientists and an acute understanding of the human condition breathes life into the entire fabric. A compelling, thought provoking and inventive narrative." - Roy Davies, author of The Darwin Conspiracy: Origins of a Scientific Crime
