Specialist Notes
Second collective edition of Galilei's Opere , edited by Tommaso Bonaventura. The first two volumes repropose, with some additions, the same texts of the Bologna edition of 1655-'56, while the third contains a series of unpublished writings, including the treatise on probability "On the discovery of dice". Also in this edition the “Dialogue” of 1632 and the “Letter to Madame Christina of Lorraine” which were still in the Index are missing.
