Galileo's Pendulum

Discover the profound insights of Galileo's Pendulum by Dusan I. Bjelic, published by the State University of New York Press in 2003. This thought-provoking paperback, spanning 221 pages, delves into the transformative impact of the scientific method that emerged in the seventeenth century. Bjelic expertly examines how this shift led to a significant de-emphasis on the body and sexuality, reshaping our understanding of these concepts in the context of science and society.

Drawing on the influential theories of renowned thinkers such as Michel Foucault and Judith Butler, this book offers a rich exploration of the intersections between gender studies, ethnomethodology, and the philosophy of science. Whether you're a student, researcher, or simply curious about the history of science and its social implications, Galileo's Pendulum is an essential addition to your library.
