Reader reviews for Seeing and Believing: How the Telescope Opened Our Eyes and Minds to the Heavens

From the publisher

A concise look at the impact of the advent of the telescope on the way humans view the universe and their place in it focuses on the visionaries, beginning with Galileo, who created and perfected it.

First line

Tube of lead, two disks of glass: The answer, when at last it arrived, appeared to be simplicity itself.
