Scientific paper

Stillman Drake has argued that Galileo believed that inertial motion is
rectilinear motion, and that certain of Galileo's references to uniform
circular motion were part of a strategy against the Aristotelian
geocentrists. Drake's arguments are examined and are found to be
unconvincing.
