DESCRIPTION:Possibly the most brilliant and devastating polemi
 c ever written on the side of science\, the Diolog
 o simply destroys classical Renaissance Aristoteli
 an physics\, argues (hopelessly badly) for a simil
 arity between cosmic and terrestrial physics and d
 oes not discover linear inertia (sorry)\, but what
  is effectively circular inertia\, which is just A
 ristotelian natural motion. More interesting\, mor
 e than a couple of decades research into kinematic
 s of motion is not mentioned in the book. There is
  much to be discussed here!
