This volume serves as a companion study to a translation of Galileo's MS 27, focusing on his engagement with Aristotle's Posterior Analytics. It aims to introduce English readers to a complex sixteenth-century logic of discovery and proof that significantly influenced seventeenth-century research. The manuscript's fragmentary nature and the challenging content necessitate careful explanation of its structure and editorial choices. Recent scholarship has shed light on Galileo's experimental work at Padua, enhancing the understanding of his contributions prior to his groundbreaking telescope discoveries.
