A History of Free Fall: Aristotle to Galileo, with an Epilogue on Pi in the Sky
Description:
The times-squared law that Galileo announced could have been discovered centuries before by any careful observer of the motion of heavy bodies. How this simple and elegant numerical description of the motion of falling bodies evaded all the best minds from Aristotle to Galileo's contemporaries is the subject of Stillman Drake's short monograph.
