Kind of like Dan Brown's Angels & Demons (especially with the part about Galileo), but set in that actual time period. Bonus if it's based closely on real events and people.
Honestly, almost like a science history book, but less dry and easier to read than an academic text, I suppose.

If you find a book that fits all that, please update… that sounds exactly like my taste.
