When most people think about Catholicism and science, they will automatically think of one of the famous events in the history of science the condemnation of Galileo by the Roman Catholic Church. But the interaction of Catholics with science has been and is far more complex and positive than that depicted in the legend of the Galileo affair. Understanding the natural world has always been a strength of Catholic thought and research from the great theologians of the Middle Ages to the present day and science has been a hallmark of Catholic education for centuries.Catholicism and Science, a volume in the Greenwood Guides to Science and Religion series, covers all aspects of the relationship of science and the Church: How Catholics interacted with the profound changes in the physical sciences (natural philosophy) and biological sciences (natural history) during the Scientific Revolution; how Catholic scientists reacted to the theory of evolution and their attempts to make evolution compatible with Catholic theology; and the implications of Roman Catholic doctrinal and moral teachings for neuroscientific research, and for investigation into genetics and cloning.The volume includes primary source documents, a glossary and timeline of important events, and an annotated bibliography of the most useful works for further research
